Exploring a sense of place through my @risdce course Mapping and Draw Your World. Made an accordion map showing a global to local scale, with the goal of highlighting flora and fauna from my community in my geo-journal.

Our planet is amazing!
Used @andonstar microscope to examine this butterfly to see the fine details - proboscis, hairs, eyes, patterns.

Using art to connect field science, #ExplorerMindset, and qualitative observations 🔬🎨🪲
Using a microscope to observe details of the turquoise beetle, & drawing the head, thorax, and abdomen in graphite. Couldn’t resist using watercolor to show iridescence!

Saturday morning science! 🔬🎨
Taking a closer look at Xylocopa caerulea blue carpenter bee.
Did you even know that there were blue bees?! I sure didn’t! They’re native to SE Asia.
Our amazing world is filled with biodiversity!
