My dog’s worst habit- if I get home late (especially if I’ve been out seeing a horror movie) he won’t come inside after he pees, he’ll just stand there staring until I come find him

Can someone help me identify this bird?? I CANNOT figure out what this creature is and it's driving me insane

Hi! I'm from Argentina. These past few weeks, CONICET (National Scientific and Technical Research Council) has been livestreaming new research from our underwater continental slope. There are many new and very beautiful creatures.

You can search “Underwater Oases of Mar Del Plata Canyon: Talud Continental IV”

Hope you like it! <3

That was some absolutely remarkable footage; thank you for sharing! I could watch for hours. I can hardly imagine the excitement and joy of the Argentinian scientists documenting this ecosystem. How awesome!

Here were a few of my favorite shots from the footage

art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you

Gave me goosebumps just seeing the video; I can hardly imagine what you felt in the moment!

“When we hear his call we hear no mere bird. We hear the trumpet in the orchestra of evolution. He is the symbol of our unatamable past, of that incredible sweep of millennia which underlies and conditions the daily affairs of birds and men.”

-Aldo Leopold on Sandhill Cranes

This is by far the most incredible thing I've ever seen. Put the sound on and watch to the end, I promise it's worth it.

I got in my car out of the pouring rain and noticed a TINY spider on my leg; I was going to brush her off when I noticed she was drinking from a raindrop on my skin 🥹

She was safely escorted out of my car onto a porch after this. I know my skin looks horrible at this magnification but I swear I do moisturize

Mallorie stole a cheesy hot dog and has been growling over it for 5 minutes now.
