In my Tardigrade hunting video that I recently uploaded, there was a short clip of a rotifer looking like it was almost about to break out of its egg sac. I filmed several clips of it, and even saw some material being expelled from the egg sac. I was in a bit of a rush making the tardigrade video so I didn't have time just to sit and watch this little dude/dudette finally break out. Now of course I'm very much regretting that decision...

 

Anyway, here is a compilation of clips of the rotifer almost being born.

The hatching has begun, the eggs are resting in the hatching incubator as the new chicks make their way into the world.

I noticed a spider web with lots of dark spots on it. I looked closer and they were moving. I ran for the macro lens and this is the result. Their tiny world is quite facinating through a macro lens.

Is it hatching or is there something stuck on it? Although when hatching the cracks appear usually a little lower down on the wide end of the egg.

you can see the "egg tooth" in the middle of the opening the chick uses for breaking out, this soon disappears

I left for a while and came back. Seconds after my arrival to check on this little one a gentleman came in and filled a jar with water. he put a few finger tip drops on the baby chick and helped the shell to crack open slightly.

HANDMADE

I had this piece of wood and I didn't know what to do, then I came up with the idea of creating something fun. I've pyrographed three hens, one on top of the other, that are hatching eggs. The first, in the waiting, is knitting, the second is reading a book and the third is playing on the cell phone waiting for the eggs to hatch. I had a lot of fun creating it and although it took a long time the work satisfied me a lot and I hope you like it too!!!!

I put a hook to be able to attach it to the wall, you choose the room, I think it is adaptable to any room. I finished the work with a layer of transparent protective paint (topcoat) to make the wood's design and veins brighter.

Just to shock you… here is a real old style Liz-sketch. I USED to be totally addicted to cross hatching! I am so used to using paint for my tone now that it was strange to cross hatch… so feel a little rusty! But it was a lot of fun to only use lines tonight when last night I only used paint - and I kept the sunlit walls white tonight!

 

Freehand Sketching by Paul Laseau was one of the first sketching books I bought when I started getting serious about improving my drawing for work about 10 years ago. Been meaning to re-visit this small book for ages so picked it up tonight while having a cuppa and it is a GEM! He has a very architectural style but no description of perspective in the book. Absolutely love this quote….

 

"While perspective is a handy device to construct imagined spaces, it is not useful and possibly detrimental to sketching existing environments. Using perspective can place an arbitrary screen between you and the environment, leading to rationalising rather than scrutinising your subject."

 

Even though I don't I totally agree, I do have a great sympathy with it, because I often have 'constructed' space on the page rather than simply drawing what I see.

On a cold and rainy Friday morning in June, crews mobilized for the somber task of removing an Osprey nest and relocating the eggs. Once on site, however, new information on the clutch status, accompanied with inspired coordination among contractors and Oregon Department of Transportation leadership, led to a monumental effort to try to keep the Osprey family intact while still removing the imminently dangerous hazard tree.

LEPIDOPTERARIUM

[le-pi-DOP-tuh-RAIR-ee-um]

 

Welcome to the Lepidopterarium where microfiche metamorphose into butterflies! Up from the ruins of abandoned technology comes a glorious transformation.

 

You may remember that this space was previously home to the Friends' Book Store. It is now a butterfly conservatory.

 

Here the nearly extinct LIBRARY BLUES (caeruleus bibliothecaris) hatch by the hundreds. These beautiful butterflies are extremely rare.

 

There are not many places left in the world to see them. We created this very special habitat in order to help them survive the digital age. The brambly field of wire book supports provides the LIBRARY BLUES with plenty of places to perch.

 

Historically, this species was spotted at the library quite often fluttering through stacks and nestling inside card catalog cabinets. Nowadays, it is unlikely to see them anywhere but in the archives.

 

We have lined the walls of the Lepidopterarium with catalog cards because LIBRARY BLUES love to nibble and munch on these information-filled treats. Look carefully at their translucent wings to notice the complex markings that are unique to each insect.

 

It is our hope that conservation efforts and displays such as this one will inspire a new generation of library scientists and lepidoptera lovers.
