“Lost at sea” by Angel Fitor

Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) spend their lives unhurriedly roaming the high seas – the largest habitat on Earth – in search of edible morsels drifting in the water currents. As omnivores, the sea turtles feed on a wide variety of items, including jellyfish, salps, bits of seaweed and carrion.

Because of their broad dietary interests, the animals are inevitably attracted by the brightly colored, eye-catching pieces of plastic drifting around in the world’s oceans.

Many loggerhead turtles perish in agony due to intestinal blockage, just one of the many health concerns of ingested plastic.

This antique store was... different

This is the penultimate WIS link list. The final list, number 100, shall reprise all previous link lists and come sometime in February. I'm looking forward to crafting a new link list reborn in a new style and with other themes. Doing anything 100 times isn't easy so I'm proud of this little series of blog posts I've made.

Onto the links!

Life inside seawater - Photographer Angel Fitor captures some amazing living things in seawater.

Sony Walkman - Sony is still designing and making what look like great products.

Lightning maps - The amount of lightning happening globally at any given time is impressive.

These fish are cichlids (SICK-lids), a hugely diverse group of fish of which the majority—at least 250 species—live in Africa’s Lake Tanganyika. They’re all extremely territorial but have evolved from a single ancestor over millennia to fill every niche in the continent’s second-oldest lake.

PHOTOGRAPHS BY ANGEL FITOR

Pictured above, a featherfin cichlid finishing building a 26-inch-wide circular bowler, where he will dance vigorously to attract a female. The two will mate on the sandy stage.

Angel Fitor/Sony World Photography Awards

Photographer Angel Fitor says his project Sea Drops falls “somewhere between art and science”. Fitor used micropipettes to carefully place individual specimens of live plankton — tiny creatures measuring 200 to 1,500 micrometres across — inside specially lit drops of water to be photographed. The shots won third place in the Wildlife & Nature category of the 2021 Sony World Photography Awards. Following the photo shoot, the oblivious, unharmed plankton models were released into the sea.

The Ethereal Drifter, Angel Fitor

This comb jelly steers itself through the water using beating rows of hair-like cilia which form combs along its cylindrical body. The combs scatter light, creating colourful iridescence. Unlike jellyfish, comb jellies do not sting. Instead they catch plankton and other small prey using sticky cells in their lobes and tentacles.
