A mating pair of Nepita conferta. The female moth is killed by an assassin bug.

On a dead tree.

Found feeding on a dead whale offshore

Encontrado en uno de los dos pequeños parques

no red whatsoever, but the black head gave it away.
lifer for me :-)
i have a short video of it fleeing, it moved in a very strange push motion.

With Christie Blakley, whose grandfather Jim discovered this obscure and highly range restricted species in 1963.

Lots on the thin hair-like green algae.

Night tidepooling.

I’m assuming the items are unrelated, but proximity is interesting

Clearly had eaten 6+ bird eggs (junco?)

Endemic species. Seen off the Poor Knights Shelf Area during the Petrel Station Seabirding Tours.

Crazy!!! No idea what is surrounding it- maybe some kind of fungus?

夜行性動物，體色為濃栗色，在樹上打量我是誰，並發出聲音，有飛膜，台灣三種飛鼠之一。

聲音為短促的嘶吼聲，但不是很清楚，背景聲音是黃嘴角鴞。

This could be a Sharp-shinned Hawk. The bird in its talons looks like a Rail, possibly a Clapper Rail.

Feeding on a cranefly. Grrrr!

About 25 mm long. Matthew, I have emailed you re these.

Found at a depth of about 2500 feet
