@chronomania Is trying to convince the group chat that feet are shoes please prove her wrong.

#I already told her #Shoes are FOR feet but feet ARE feet #What more proof does she need

Well, Reinhardt. First we should review: What is a shoe?

Definition says they’re an external covering for the foot, usually made of leather. Strictly speaking about humans, you’re right, feet cannot possibly be shoes. However, if we review adaptations of animals like the snowshoe hare, or the ptarmigan (a bird common in Rocky Mountains.) We can find that their feet have built in shoes, since unlike humans, they don’t possess the resources or finer intelligence necessary to invent clothing.

Arguably, I’d say having fur that grows around the foot loosely fills the criteria of an external covering. Therefore, while not all feet are shoes, some feet can be shoes.

@drachentoter My apologies. I was so busy making preparations I forgot to alert anyone until just this morning. Moving always puts me in somewhat of a frenzy.

#Checking and double checking everything #drachentoter

@drachentoter I think you and Tracer will both be pleased to know I'm only minutes away from your location by now. It took a little longer to get everything ready than I expected, but I'm finally in New Mexico!

Whale Flukeprint

Since you guys seemed to enjoy the post on vortices and birds. Here is a throwback for you :

This is a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) fluke-print and it is absolutely gorgeous. They are formed immediately after the whale dunks down into the sea. ( A reminiscent of the whales presence )

As you can observe, the inside surface is smoother compared to the outside waves. It appears that the waves inside have been dampened out somehow.

This paper ( A theory for the hydrodynamic origin of whale flukeprints ) suggests that there are vortices that are formed at the end of fluke print (Region III) which dampens them out. For more details on this phenomenon please read the paper by Levy.et al.

Its really fascinating ! Have a great day!
