Today (3/15) is the changing of the biological guard, if you will. --Last Day for Bald Eagle Roosting Season --First Day for three nesting raptors (BOwl, Peregrine Falcon, and Prairie Falcon). As these and other raptors start to begin nesting, please check your development sites before groundbreaking. 🌳🦜👀 (Here is the full list of species, dates and timing limitations: https://lnkd.in/gynjXAa) Also a friendly reminder to send us any new raptor nest data points 🎯 by 10/1 - so we can ensure our HPH maps and polygons represent the current distribution of nesting raptors.

PM at AIMS | Artificial Reef Design & Construct | Reef CPR and Coral Relocations | Mentor | Marine Trainer
TRITON SNAILS…our friends in the fight to reduce coral damage by COTS…but how? Australian Institute of Marine Science SeaSim is conducting some fascinating and potentially very rewarding research with COTS and tritons. Did you know a COTS can smell a triton? And when it does it gets the hell away as fast as it can! So what is it smelling exactly? That is what AIMS is figuring out because it may lead to production of a COTS repellant. Another way to reduce or prevent loss of priority reefs. But…there is suspicion that COTS also smell each other and use that to congregate. Which they like to do and especially for reproduction. They need to be close. Therefore AIMS research has expanded to now identify what compound attracts them. This could lead to production of an attractant to bring them to an area to make it easier to cull them. Like drawing them to a waterhole. I had absolute pleasure the other week to get an impromptu tour of the triton and COTS tanks and I heard some amazing facts about tritons that you won’t find online or in your usual books. 👏🏻 Lee shared some fascinating facts…eg did you know tritons look after their eggs? And there is something they eat that basically makes them act stoned?! 😂 Check out the attached video for a behind the scenes insight to Tritons and COTS… . . #crownofthornsstarfish #cots #coralrestoration #seasim #tritonsnails

Owls are birds from the order Strigiformes[1] (/ˈstrɪdʒəfɔːrmiːz/), which includes over 200 species of mostly solitary and nocturnal birds of prey typified by an upright stance, a large, broad head, binocular vision, binaural hearing, sharp talons, and feathers ad

A significant discovery has recently been made during a sonar survey off the coast of Germany in the Bay of Mecklenburg. A roughly half-mile long section of wall, now referred to as the "Blinkerwall", has been found. Comprised of about 300 boulders and 1,400 smaller stones, this structure is estimated to date back 10,000 years. It's suggested by Jacob Geersen of the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde that the wall could have been a part of a hunting route utilized for chasing reindeer before the region was deluged with about 70 feet of water. Further exploration of the area is planned to possibly uncover any embedded animal bones or projectiles. More details about this fascinating discovery can be found in the original research article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. #archaeology #engineeringinnovations

✨Porpita porpita, commonly known as the blue button or by-the-wind sailor, is a fascinating marine organism belonging to the hydrozoan class. 💙Resembling a small, translucent disc, these creatures float on the ocean surface, propelled by a gas-filled float. 💙The vibrant blue coloration of their upper surface makes them easily recognizable. ✨Found in warm oceans globally, Porpita porpita is not a single organism but a colony of specialized polyps working together. Each polyp has a specific function, contributing to the overall survival and functioning of the colony.

Settle the debate, fireflies or lightning bugs? 💡🦗 Turns out they are the same exact insect, but the different terms are the result of regional dialects. There are more than 2,000 species of fireflies. This natural phenomenon is called bioluminescence, and the bioluminescent organs in fireflies are found on the underside of the abdomen; creating a chemical reaction within the firefly’s light organ that produces the light. Bioluminescence in fireflies is nearly 100 percent efficient, making it one of the most efficient lights in the world. What could we learn from these energy-efficient flying beetles? #wildlife #nature #firefly #funfacts #beetles

"...Navigating complexity can feel like uncharted waters, and for years the Cynefin framework has acted as a compass for finding a direction through the unknown. But if complexity is like unknown waters, why not learn from the flow itself? In this session, Dave Snowden will do just that, drawing parallels between the intricate, multiple flows of possibility in a system and the dynamic nature of an estuary...."
