The point is: lots of people will have accepted the first image because it looks kind of right and it's on an art page. The doctored image is already turning up in search results. We are cooked if we don't start to push back against this stuff. AI is poisonous to human endeavour, pass it on <end>

My book,Ponies at the Edge of the World, tells the story of Shetland ponies and the people who love them. Based on my PhD research, and journey to live in #Shetland, it reflects on how our relationship with others, human, animal and landscape, affect how we feel at home in a place

Grey wagtail

Scientific name: Motacilla cinerea

Alternative name: Quite-yellow-but-not-as-yellow-as-the-yellow-wagtail-wagtail; Ashen Arsepumper

Finnish name: virtavästäräkki

Song: tsip-tsip-tsip-tsip (pause) tsippa-tsippa-tsippa-tsippa-tsippa
A grey wagtail on a rock. It’s… well, as the name implies, it’s largely grey, but it also has a striking yellow patch under the tail. So striking that people often wonder why it isn’t called ‘yellow wagtail’. That’s before they’ve seen a yellow wagtail, which is pretty much yellow all over. But I digress. As the name also implies, it has a long tail, which it, like all the members of the family, likes to wag. In fact, if you’ve got a moment, the action in the grey wagtail is more like a sort of pumping.
