#creaturefeature A drifting leaf with a heartbeat 👻 The ornate ghost pipefish doesn’t swim—it haunts—disappearing into anemones it turns camouflage into art. Not a pipefish but kin to the seahorse where fathers carry new life & beauty is born in silence

Symbolism behind our founder Jane Lee McCracken's new #drawing commissioned by the Aga Khan Centre Gallert for the Canticle of the Birds exhibition. The work reimagines Attar’s timeless allegory as a collective journey of doubt, courage and enlightenment and is a reminder that all species matter

We're at Baqa’a Refugee Camp in Jordan with @globalfirst. The camp was set up in 1968 for Palestinian refugees. Our amazing volunteer Owen age 13, USA has set up a drawing station for children to drop in and draw Jordanian wildlife. Many of these children haven't drawn before. TY Owen, super proud

Magical visit to the #FarneIslands #Northumberland a seabird & grey seal sanctuary & one of the UK's most important breeding sites for vulnerable Atlantic Puffins. #Puffins are threatened by overfishing and climate change. A world without the parrots of the sea is unimaginable

Thanks our partners Global First Responder 400 children took part in our Zambian wildlife project while waiting for medical treatment from GFR's volunteers. These children live in abject poverty with no access to education. They made #drawings for the 1st time ever
