Photographer Mandy Wilson has captured an extraordinary image showing a newborn dolphin riding on mom’s back around Penguin Island, near Perth, off Western Australia's coast — and seemingly smiling in delight. 🐬

#1890 - Amoria zebra - Zebra Volute

Penguin Island last weekend - there is an Amoria species that’s found around Perth - A. grayi - but A. zebra is native to the warmer parts of the East coast, so I suspect somebody is playing silly buggers. It wouldn’t be the first time they’ve put a non-local species in with the other shells on display. 

This genus of predatory snails is found in onshore and offshore waters around the entire coast of Australia, although several species extend into offshore waters of southern Indonesia. More species are found in the intertidal and shallow subtidal waters of northern Western Australia, followed by the subtidal waters of the Great Barrier Reef.

As can penguins, since they have small souls, as suggested by St. Catherine.

For me? I am but a little flower.

“Alfred Date learned how to knit in 1932.

In 2015, at 109 he created tiny clothes for Phillip Island Penguins who needed woolen jumpers in the wake of the oil spill to help prevent penguins from swallowing the oil when they attempted to clean themselves.

Alfred ‘Alfie’ Date passed away in 2016 at 110 years old.”

“i feel like sidney crosby would have a 4 star rating on ratemyteacher”… once again she’s so right

[crow-talks-hockey]

something about how trades really do affect players. how it's not just us as fans being crazy or reading too much into it. it's real and it's painful. erik johnson has lacked the hutzpah he once had ever since leaving colorado, as if he could bear landeskog's injury but the second he was forced to leave it all came crashing down. sidney crosby has lost much of the joy he once carried and it's because he had the human, golden embodiment of that joy in jake guentzel torn away from him when he needed it most. dylan larkin shed genuine, heartfelt, distraught tears when tyler bertuzzi was traded away. the penguins still welcome marc-andre fleury to pittsburgh every time he plays there because, no matter where he is, that is his home. pk subban could never return to the same player he was after he was taken from price. trevor zegras is seemingly incomplete without drysdale at his side. brandon duhaime is lacking his connor dewar. bowen byram no longer has his alex newhook to lean on and laugh with. travis koneckny and nolan patrick may never even get the chance to play another game with or against one another. and who could imagine kuznetsov as anyone but a capital? do you really think of pavelski in the green of the stars or do you see him proud in teal beside thornton and marleau? did shea weber ever really stop being a nashville predator? and what about beauvillier, horvat, compher, dumolin, burakovsky, kadri, yamamoto, hornqvist, eberle, o'rielly, barrie, jost, gaudreau, karlsson, carter and richards, martin, and so many others? even wayne gretzky himself went to three teams post trade, searching for that spark he had in edmonton after they made him leave. jagr had eight after pittsburgh. you are not crazy for grieving, in some small way, a player you lost. and they aren't crazy for feeling distraught either. these teams are family. and family is everything, even if it gets ripped apart so easily.

Île des Pingouins, or Penguin Island, is an uninhabited island in the subantarctic Crozet Archipelago of the southern Indian Ocean. It is small — just 1 square mile (3 square km) — with coastal cliffs ranging from 164 to 984 feet (50-300 meters) tall, making it virtually inaccessible by sea. The island is an important nesting site for seabirds and has an exceptionally high density of avian residents, including a million pairs of macaroni penguins.
