What an interesting project, Hoophy. Please keep us updated. I'd like to see how the ants grow! What will you feed the Queen once she can eat?

Yes, I will feed her once the exoskeletons of her first workers have hardened. I will provide a drop of honey and a cricket leg. :)

Amazing DennisN, nectar thefts are colorful and have become energetic.

Thanks @Sophia and @Pepper Mint! I think I have got the insect bug right now... I think I am going to look for ants and spiders the next time I go on a photo shoot...

More than 300 reindeer killed by lightning in Norway.
That must have been one heck of a storm.

Another example of taking an interest in human technology:

Although I suppose one could question whether this is really human technology...

Nice , but don't neglect my contribution to the cat game genera!

I love both dogs and cats.
I find it funny the way they ( or the cats! )have decided to stay arch rivals of one another for eternity, fighting and staring and all that.

Once in our locality, we found out a cat and a dog sleeping back to back. That was kidda cute.

I think it was a good cat.

 

[jtbell]

This is not our cat, but it seems to have semi-adopted us. We often see it lounging on the front steps, or on the deck, or underneath one of our cars, etc. It likes to look for game in the ivy that covers a large part of our yard.

 

[Rx7man]

Wow, that's a huge cat!

Here's a pic of a bull I sold a friend of mine 3 years ago.. he's 4 years old now and has become rather impressive.. weighs around 2400 lbs.. still thinks he's a baby.. He does know how to pose nicely though

Found this little guy in my hayfield while I was cutting it.. had to move him out of the way

These guys' brain size is a role model on far too many humans ...

A fascinating animal...

[Psinter]

It's okay because if she falls on the water, she receives 0 damage.

Wait... that's only in video games.

I think that's a good question for physics: If you fall from a very very high distance and hit water, does it hurt you? The answer is yes, but can the force exerted on you be calculated? After all, some of that kinetic energy will be transformed into waves. I don't think it can be assumed that the same amount of force you hit the water will rebound to you because of the conservation of energy (it's not an elastic collision). Some will get transformed and spread in a different direction. Being able to calculate it with precision... that'd be great.

Bats are great! I wish I could spend some time in a cave with bats. And it would be cool if there were prehistoric drawings, too. Ideally, it would be a place near the surface with a small amount of daylight.

I was born on October 30, so that could explain why I like all things and animals mysterious and scary for some people. Including bats :-)

Literally a couple of metres outside my rear door...

Life is hard in Kangaroo Heaven...

"Ooooh, hey doodes,... check out the purple koala in that tree over there."

[Although you can only see a few here, there's literally a couple of hundred in my complex. They're not tame, and nearby signs warn to treat them as wild animals and not to approach them. But the female at the front is gradually getting used to me. I think the others have formed a conspiracy to imprison me by creating a poo barrier outside my door. ]

Calling this place "Kangaroo Heaven" is probably accurate: no predators or annoying dogs running around this complex. Plus a steady supply of good quality grass, maintained by professionals, i.e., golf course groundsmen.

I used here a double caption ... (I have a feeling this was posted before, but in another thread. If so, I'm sorry, it can be deleted)

This one is old, but it is gold:

Any volunteers for the Sunday roast out there?

No! I just googled that out and no! How dare you!

Spoiler: Vegans and vegetarians don't click here!

November is a good month for pig slaughter. One can have good homemade sausage for Christmas sauerkraurt. It's best when it can freeze outside for a while.

this is the community stray dog in a town in my county. His name is Ťapko and he became a celebrity when citizens signed a petition against town attempts to put him into shelter.

The good people give him food and blankets and the local vet checked and vaccinated him for free. The mayor of the town paid a dog tax for him.
He's been living in the neighbourhood for about 8 years now and is very friendly.

Awww that's cute! What a beautiful and intelligent bird! And how she got angry when that annoying human wanted to decrease the flow in the end :-)

Chasing The Wolverine - Most Extraordinary Predator That Ever Lived - Documentary TV (beautiful mountain scapes)


A wolverine climbs Mt. Cleveland at the end of January. Vertical climb was 4900 ft - in 90 minutes - to an elevation of 10,479 ft. That's impressive. On the other hand, a wolverine weighs up to 30 lbs (14 kgs) as opposed to 170-180 lbs (80-85 kg).

"Not that many people want to go out at 20 below (-20 F), and into a 50 mph wind, and see what a wolverine is doing." Doug Chadwick
