Actually that might be the most beautiful cottonmouth I've ever seen. Often they're pretty ugly.

Sitting in my garden looking at tits. It's pretty good, but hard to capture with a phone. Also they should take singing lessons, but I guess MTV ruined that.

BonHair posted:Spring has arrived in Denmark! This is an Inachis io/dagpåfugleøje/påfågelöga/peacock butterfly. It has spent the winter hiding somewhere dark. You can tell that it's a winter generation specimen by the worn and faded wings. The new one that hatch in the summer will have much brighter colors.

it's wild the amount of people who seem to take joy in not having an account. Like, why not have one? Keeps all your uploads and albums in one place, it's great. Some folks seem hostile to the suggestion of having one, it's weird

i really don't use it enough to warrant it. nothing "joyful" about it, it's not a principled stand or anything, i just really don't see a need to revisit my one-shot uploads whenever google drive holds all my poo poo already.

Test E: wow; that's huge aaannnd it turns out that I've had an Imgur account at least a decade, and had four photos in it from 2012... I have resurrected it for future use.  I assume that all of the images I've uploaded will be purged, since they weren't done after I was logged in. PainterofCrap fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Apr 25, 2023 |

I exclusively use my imgur account, because the imgur Uploader plug-in for chrome needs you to be logged in; but, even if you upload using your account, there's no way for astral and the crew scraping the entire forums to re-host imgur images can tell if a given image is tied to an account or not... which means it has to be saved anyway, and that adds to the total burden. Moreover, imgur wanting all images to be tied to accounts has an extremely obvious ulterior motive of eventually holding our images hostage to account fees. The free lunch is over, basically. I don't believe any free image host other than SA itself can be relied upon long-term to always be free... it costs money to run an image host and it's difficult to inject advertising into hotlinked images so they gotta get money somewhere. The tl;dr is that you should save important images to your own local drive, your own cloud storage, etc. and just assume images you host on an image host will eventually either cost you money or go away.

 Pigeons come in black apparently? Not sure how common this is but I never noticed one before. If you look close this one has been banded, so someone is keeping track of it.

Could be someone's escaped racing dove, or some other kind of pet or working bird. Some of my wild ones are that dark shade, pigeon genetics and patterns are all over the place and vary a lot regionally too. In my neighborhood some have splotches of white because I suspect someone's wedding, etc. dove got some action around here.

Here’s a  (if you are a beetle) picture of these awful looking beetles mating. They are very clumsy and all look like pregnant females. They were still going at it 5 minutes later.

Nah, you yeet them for distance like a foot ball. The arms give them a wicked spiral. Serious answer: dunk the bucket and they swim out.

 My phone camera is bad at zooming, so apologies for the quality, but I was excited to see my first gator (more than just a head sticking out of the water at least) since moving to the East Coast. Also pictured, what I believe is a little blue heron, who took a pretty wide walk around the gator. Later a great blue heron walked right up to him, not a care in the world. Edit: It's been a critter filled couple of days, I tried to take a picture of a bird, but he flew away, and I was annoyed, and then realized it was accidentally the best photo I've taken in awhile. North Carolina coast, any ideas on an ID?

Mzbundifund posted:Hard to tell with the blur but it looks like a yellow garden spider to me. Thanks for the ID but I’m in Australia, I suspect it’s a juvenile orb weaver just based on the size and strength and optimistic location of the web. I hadn’t looked for pictures until now but she does look similar aside from that her abdomen is small. It’s interesting that similar camouflage occurs in parallel between widely different species, it must be effective. Stoca Zola fucked around with this message at 05:11 on May 2, 2023 |
