That's not a good photo but you can see the mess in my room. I love what I'm studying but please, I can't study anymore, I really want to finish the exams!
North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. North-facing slopes and shaded draws attract junipers on this landscape.
Found by a student in my Marine Biology class. At first we thought the shell was empty, but when Noah noticed a little hermit crab inside, he returned this beauty to the tidepools.

Update from SNZ:
Two of Potpie's kits have started opening an eye!😉🔎See if you can catch the female with her left eye and one of the males with his right eye partially open on the 🎥webcam. 📏While these kits are early to open their eyes, Smithsonian Conservation and Biology Institute keepers did a quick weight check on June 9 and all three appear healthy! The males weighed 131 grams and 122 grams, and the female weighed 109.5 grams.
Family: Apidae
I came across this rather small bee along a wooded path leading up to Bannerdown Common. I don't know the reason for holding this position on a leaf (Cardamine bulbifera) and appearing to present itself in a rather exposed fashion.
If someone does know, please do share!

Kayaking at Tjärnö in Bohuslän, Sweden. This was during a field-stay at Tjärnö marine biological laboratory at the Swedish west-coast, the stay was a part of a course in marine biology. I didn't have my eos 30D back then, but used a compact digital camera that i had borrowed from my dad.

Common: Dwarf White Orchid Tree, White Bauhinia, Kaa-long, Snowy Orchid.
Malayalam: Mandaaram
Bauhinia acuminata is a species of flowering shrub native to tropical southeastern Asia. Common names include: Dwarf White Bauhinia, White Orchid-tree and Snowy Orchid-tree.
It grows two to three meters tall. Like the other Bauhinia species, the leaves are bilobed, shaped like an ox hoof; they are 6 to 15 centimeters long and broad, with the apical cleft up to 5 cm deep; the petiole is 1.5 to 4 centimeters long. The flowers are fragrant, 8 to 12 centimeters in diameter, with five white petals, ten yellow-tipped stamens and a green stigma. The fruit is a pod 7.5 to 15 centimeters long and 1.5 to 1.8 centimeters broad. The species occurs in deciduous forests and scrub.
It is widely cultivated throughout the tropics as an ornamental plant. It may be found as an escape from cultivation in some areas, and has become naturalised.
Medical Uses: Root-decoction: boiled with oil and applied to burns; Stem-bark: antidote to poison; Decoction of bark of leaf: in biliousness, bladder stone, leprosy and asthma.

Image taken at a quiet moment when I had a meeting at my daughter's school this week. I could not resist this opportunity!
Today’s exam was biology. Usually biology is my best subject, but the exam was not perfect this time. I could choose from three different tasks, of which I had to solve two. The first one was about genetics (which is the topic dealt with in this MoC) and the others were evolution and ecology. In the end I chose genetics, which is my favorite topic and ecology, because the task was self explanatory.
The next exam will be English on monday.
Within the realm of biology, I see that there is no longer any sum or difference found within multiplication and division.
