Well come on generals let's move fast,
Your big chance is come at last,
Gotta go out and get those reds,
The only good commie is one that's dead,
And you know that peace can only be won,
When you blow them all to kingdom come

vertically oriented color photo of a large valley oak, just starting to leaf out and covered in clumps of mistletoe. the grass of the foreground and background hills is bright green and the sky is a lovely shade of clear blue with streaks of thin high clouds to the left side.  a cow pond of muddy brown water is just behind the tree and the entire scene is in shadow except for the sun shining brightly on the hill to the left behind the oak tree. sunlight also hits on the shrubs behind the tree, and behind the far pond edge. an evergreen live oak tree is on the right side of the photo, cut off by the cropping.

the foreground of this color photo of a CA spring landscape shows some large boulders, with green meadows and cow paths beyond them, going up some small hills.  the next valley shows a chaparral covered ridge, with the eastern side of the North Peak of Mt. Diablo in bluish tones behind the ridge.  To the left of the photo, behind the green meadowy hill is a copse of trees.  the branches of live oak peek out from the right side of the photo. The sky is light blue with a few clouds far in the distance.

high thin speckled clouds in a beautifully shaped bank rise above clear blue skies over lovely green grassy meadowed hills, with a few evergreen live oaks and some deciduous blue oaks just starting to leaf out in the swale between the hill ridges.

A really nice example of a Dolatocrinus calyx from the Devonian Thunder Bay limestone of Alpena. The stem would have connected in the center of the star and the arms would have attached on the U shaped bumps on the left pic.

This shows the 5 point symmetry common in most echinoderms.

It's quietly astonishing what Jono Ridler and team are doing with Live Ocean in Aotearoa NZ. Pushing athletic limits and raising awareness of a devastating practice that threatens our oceans and us. Swim on, Jono! #GlobalWaterFutures #SwimForTheOcean #EndBottomTrawling

A cool little Mycena that I photographed in Oxapampa, PerΓΊ. Never seen one with this cool stem texture before, no idea which species it could be.

In the Wake of the Storm A look back at the United States’ outsize influence on global conservationβ€”and why the latest funding cuts are hardly surprising.

352,000 employees have left the US government. Caroline Van Hemert is one.

"As a writer & concerned citizen, I knew my ability to speak out would be compromised. And as a researcher, I couldn’t abandon the scientific transparency & conservation ethics that had formed the backbone of my training."
