Cyclostome bryozoan growing in a narrow echinoid spine.
They are still at it @Dominos_UK like flies - spamming the innocent. I don't eat pizza and haven't been to Balham in 40 years, and I have 'opted out' yet still they keep coming ... What is to be done with this turbulent feast? #spam

Springing springs - one of the things which make life worth living. There are some nice ones at Shernborne.
Our next lecture: 'Boxstones - in search of Miocene Suffolk' by @tim_holt_wilson - Thurs Nov 21st, all welcome at Zicer Building, UEA, Norwich at 19:30. Exploring patchy evidence for local life c.6 million years ago.
Washed up on Trimingham beach, Norfolk, a tough, silica-rich, Palaeozoic erratic pebble (now polished) shows sign of - what? - partly fused grains; complex quartz veination cutting across relict bedding planes. Tuff? Shocked metaquartzite? @palaeokatie @pavementgeology @WGCG_UK
A reminder that it is our modern industrial civilization’s accelerating demand for materials that drives fossil fuel consumption, ecocide & the West’s imperialist assaults on the Global South. In 6 recent years we've consumed nearly as much as we did in the entire 20th century.
Smoking bonfire infusing autumnal oak, fumigates last summer's woodpigeon nest, its updraught buffets yellowing leaves and brings them floating down. "And all to sweetness turns" @EdwardThomasFS
Not troll sneeze or witch's butter, but Nostoc cyanobacteria @HolkhamEstate, TF84/VC28 West Norfolk, England. World's most abundant organisms, and among oldest. First beings to 'eat' sunlight. Created Earth's current atmosphere. Still account for ~25% of global photosynthesis.

'Urban Plants - out next year, one for my wish list ! To kill a 1/2 hour in Bath a friend and I walked a street, looked intently at front gardens, then awarded prizes based on three qualities. @Love_plants Urban plant life can astonish as well as please. futureheritage.wordpress.com/2017/04/24/gar…
After two years combing the streets, scaling walls, peering into gutters, scouring wasteground and lots of research and writing, Urban Plants is now with the designers! Very excited to also share the amazing cover by @carry_akroyd @BloomsburyBooks bloomsbury.com/uk/urban-plant…
Look at that ! The distribution of early & middle Bronze Age axe-heads in East Anglia. What made the Fen edge so special (social/sacred)? The only other patch of equivalent intensity is found in the Hampshire/Solent area. research.ed.ac.uk/files/47703644… #archaeology #Norfolk #Suffolk
Hi UK, here they come! Huge start of bird migration from the Waddensea westwards. Currently an bird migration traffic rate of 9000 birds per km per hour. Enjoy 😉
This has to be one of the best Twitter threads around 😄
Thread: Before refrigeration, Russians kept the milk fresh by dropping live brown frogs straight into their milk buckets. The frog’s presence kept milk from spoiling, but no one knew why. Until Albert Lebedev, a scientist from Moscow State University decided to look into it...
Atmospheric CO2 and global temperature had been stable for thousands of years until we abruptly sent both skyrocketing. Current warming has nothing to do with natural change at all; in fact, as per the interglacial cycle we should have continued to very slowly cool at this point.
Sometimes you get stopped in your tracks by something beautiful - you capture it with a camera - catch a moment in its trajectory as it passes through.
