they can get quite big! That's why I thought zoropsis false wolf spider because they're bigger than the wolf spiders here but apparently they're mostly only in California

If you're a scientist and you use chatgpt to tell you how to write R code or something I'm coming to your house and dumping ants all over the floor. Stop doing that

Off to my yearly stint in #Yosemite! I train our #BirdBanding crew every year for @instbirdpop.bsky.social. Our Yosemite MAPS stations are some of the longest-running banding stations in the US (over 30 years)! Here are a few of last year's birds (see alt text). 🪶🧪👩‍🔬🌎

Close up photo of a young male Yellow-rumped Warbler (Audubon's type). This bird is a steel blue with white eye arcs, a smudgy black breast band, and a bright yellow throat. This photo was taken to document the small amount of white mottling in his throat that helps to indicate he is still in formative plumage, and not yet in basic plumage as an adult would be.

Photo of a male Western Tanager held in the photographer's grip for documentation. He has a red face, yellow nape, wingbar and rump, and black back, wings, and tail. Photos such as this one are taken quickly for documentation of plumage before the bird is then released.

Photo of an adult male Anna's Hummingbird being held gently between fingertips while a person in a green shirt lowers a q-tip toward the bird's beak. The hummingbird is tiny with an iridescent purple head and a long black beak (with some fuzzy feathers stuck to the beak). The q-tip is part of a pollen collection study to see which plants are being pollinated by birds such as hummingbirds and warblers.

stephie ku @stephieku.mirakur.us · May 2

Today i learned "Goi" means bittern in Japanese, and May 1st is "Bittern Day" because 5-1 can be read as "Goi".　#ゴイの日
