Golden aspens blanket the trail at Fish Lake, Utah, in a beautiful autumn display. More than beautiful—it's part of Pando, the largest living organism on Earth. Over 100 acres, sharing one vast root system, a living wonder of nature. Walking here feels like stepping through living history, every leaf connected to a single ancient being.

"With huge waiting lists, public demand for allotments is clear. What’s needed now is political will, and an ability to reimagine cities not just as places to live and work, but as places to grow.
Because as Corbyn warned: once these spaces are lost, they’re rarely replaced"

In der Oranienbaumer Heide kann man laut #reddit Wiedehopfe (Upupa epops, 🇬🇧 Hoopoe, 🇵🇱 dudek) sehen. Das ist nicht weit von mir. Ich habe den Ort in Google Maps auf gut Glück markiert und auf geht's. Als ich dort ankam, hörte ich diesen unverwechselbaren Gesang. Wegen der Entfernung und der Lichtverhältnisse sind die Fotos nicht grandios, aber ich bin trotzdem unglaublich glücklich!

This is Giant Fruit Bat, known as a “flying fox.” Their wingspan can extend to four feet.
Photographer Hardik Shelat captured the beautiful animal in a rare daytime appearance. It came out of its nocturnal slumber to cool off in the intense Indian heat.

Fondry des Chiens.
Nicknamed the Grand #Canyon of the Ardennes (fear not, it is much, much smaller!) the #fondrydeschiens is a natural formed sinkhole in #Nismes, #Belgium on the border with France.
It is a little marvel of #nature and well worth a detour. Late spring and summer you will find lots of orchids in the pastures nearby. The place is protected as a natural reserve.
If you decide to go there, try to avoid the weekends and holidays since it tends to get crowded.

From May 03 at 05:00 UTC+1 until May 04 at 06:00 UTC+1, there will be a live stream of sounds from daybreak in various locations around the world to celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day. This is the 12th annual Reveil stream.
My stream from central North Carolina should be included in there right at sunrise local time on Saturday morning if all goes well.
To listen starting from 05:00 UTC+1 on Saturday, May 03, go to soundtent.org/reveil
This page is just a countdown at the time of posting.

Possibly the weirdest planet yet discovered?
Newfound world 2M1510 (AB) b appears to orbit not one but two stars...and they are actually failed stars, known as brown dwarfs...and the planet orbits sideways, in a unique up-and-down polar orbit.
eso.org/public/news/eso2508/ #space #science #astronomy #nature
Astronomers have found a planet that orbits at an angle of 90 degrees around a rare pair of peculiar stars. This is the first time we have strong evidence for one of these ‘polar planets’ orbiting a stellar pair.www.eso.org
You've probably heard that "we are stardust," but this graphic breaks it down further & tells you what kind of stars your dust came from--and which elements didn't come from stars at all.

I'm still getting my head around this Mastodon thing, (my last post was 2 years ago)...my millennial brain seems to only compute with Instagram and Facebook marketplace at best - but I'm keen to share my work here as it seems like a welcoming space.
I make things - mostly freehand machine embroidery pieces. I'm fascinated by lichen-like forms - nature's ability to hold and transform is humbling in these current times.

Matching dinosaur footprints in Cameroon and Brazil record a time when Africa and South America were still connected & herds could wander between them.
I'm not saying the very same dinosaur was stomping around in both Cameroon and Brazil...but it's possible.

More than 260 similar footprints found in Brazil and Cameroon help us understand a region that broke apart millions of years ago.Alexandra E. Petri (The New York Times)

Even after the darkest night, the sun will shine. The sea will entertain you with its relaxing noise, and the sand will reflect the light in a warm, ancient colour palette.

"Incorporating wood sawdust and chips into field soils stimulates fungal growth. In particular, incorporation of hardwood material resulted in rapid and long-term stimulation of fungal filamentous growth. The fungi that develop are not the wood rot basidiomycetes found in forests but ascomycetes (sac fungi) that have easy access to the cellulose polymers in shredded wood."
"Stimulating fungi through wood addition fits well with more sustainable agriculture. It suppresses plant pathogenic fungi and the excess nitrogen, which might otherwise wash out, is captured by the fungi. It also increases the overall diversity of soil life by providing fungal-eating soil creatures with a food source."

Of all the components of dead plants, wood is the hardest to break down. How come fungi know how to do this? What issues did they need to solve to achieve this? The Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) tries to find answers to these questions…nioo.knaw.nl
Grass is pretty amazing.
I was out at the farm, doing the regular fall chores and prepping beds for garlic, when my glasses lens fell out. The screw is, of course, gone. But I need my glasses to drive. Enter a natural material that's abundant, strong, flexible and able to hold a knot.
It got me home. Thanks, grass.
