Protein has never been so cute!!

My first book talk and signing and it couldn't have been any better or funnier!! I truly enjoy how Mary Roach talks so casually about subjects that make most people squirm. Here, we talked about my (brain) tattoo and the brain. 💕 #maryroach #grunt #bookshopsantacruz (at Bookshop Santa Cruz)

These butterflies are practicing haematophagy - feeding on blood. Blood is easy to consume and it contains a lot of nutrients such as proteins and lipids.

Although butterflies look elegant and fabulous, they feed on some pretty nasty stuff. Mud-puddling is a behaviour in which butterflies feed on fluid substances such as mud and decaying organic matter (mostly poop). They are also known to consume urine, sweat, and even tears!

This GIF shows how the toucan releases heat using its beak to cool itself off.

The toucan beak isn’t just beautiful, it’s also an adjustable thermal radiator that the bird uses to warm and cool itself. When the bird is hot, the blood vessels in their beak open up to allow more circulation to enable heat to escape. Birds can’t sweat so evolution has come up with some life hacks to get the job done.
