Inspired by a long tradition of impossible objects, this 'impossible portal' created by coded loop artist @jn3008 challanges your mind leaning toward you or away from you according to the point of the portal you focus on

From yesterday in #RoysRedwoods: There's just something about the Redwood Sideband. Every time I come across this snail, I fall in love all over again. They're just so gosh-darn charismatic - exquisite and understated and chock-full of personality.

From today in #RoysRedwoods: I have some photos to share with you, but first, please enjoy this 1-minute video of a Banana Slug munching on a Stream Violet leaf.

From today in #RoysRedwoods: Stray sunbeams reveal the Checker Lily blossoms as little lanterns, singing a siren song of light and color and scent to pollinating insects.

Hey, friends in the Flagstaff AZ area: Looking for housing for an undergrad ecology intern for 10 weeks this summer who’d really rather not airbnb. Any suggestions?

Last weekend, @schofield and I visited the Museum of International Propaganda in San Rafael, California. It's a delightful little museum featuring a broad range of propaganda art from all over the world. I took some photographs of my favorite pieces...

At long last the “Southgate Road Realignment” project will have a ribbon cutting May 6. This means starting Monday, May 8th, bike riders will finally have weekday access to Yerba Buena & Treasure Island via Macalla from the Bay Bridge East Span path, then continue to SF by ferry.

Their golden-yellow eyespots are reflecting the tree canopy above - California Bay Laurel. I've never captured anything like this before. Eat your heart out, Hypnotoad.

From last week in #RoysRedwoods: There's a little log on a creek bank that's been a shelter for salamanders & millipedes for as long as I've been here (7 years or so.) Someone moved it to make a fort 2 years ago, & I moved it back. Found this Ensatina under the log on Friday. 😊

Today @schofield (being a good sport) and I braved the fog, rain, & wind for the drive up to the East Peak of Tamalpais. Not for the view (visibility was at about 30 meters), but to visit the Gravity Car Barn & Museum. This little Rough-skinned Newt came to visit the museum too!

Peaceful protestors at the state Capitol advocating for their right to exist in Oklahoma. HB2186 passed committee today, effectively outlawing Pride parades. This is yet another example of the GOP growing their 'morality police state'.

Today I went to Humboldt Redwoods State Park to walk in the rain among the giants. Can't imagine a better way to spend my 45th birthday. Thank you @schofield for finding the Ghost Redwood - best birthday present EVER! 🤍

And finally: A sunbeam made an unexpected appearance during today's 30-minute slime lapse video. I kinda like the effect though. This is (probably) Badhamia utricularis, creeping across an old mossy log.

Today I took @schofield to see one of my favorite trees: A grand old California Bay on the east side of #DeerIsland Open Space Preserve in Novato.
