The cuttlefish has a remarkable talent. Its skin contains millions of pigment cells and it uses hypnotic color patterns to mesmerize its prey before it strikes. (Blue Planet II)

Jumping spider mimic barklouse, Psocoptera. Photographed in Singapore.

Comments from the photographer: The spots on the wings resemble the eyes of salticids (jumping spiders), and even with highlights. To top it off, it moves on tree trunks like a salticid.

Thriving communities are a tapestry of interwoven characters— and missing threads can cause the whole to unravel. On this Endangered Species Day, let’s take a moment to reflect on the role these creatures play in the fabric of life on Earth.

Common eastern bumblebee, Bombus impatiens, Apidae

Although most B. impatiens are strictly black and yellow in color, sometimes an aberrant color morph appears in which black abdominal hairs are instead reddish-brown.

why are birds so cursed

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

A Non-Comprehensive List of Birds That Piss Me Off

1. Dracula Parrot. This thing pisses me off like, a bunch

2. King Vulture. the felted craft project equivalent of a haunted ventriloquist dummy

i will never not resent this bird 

 3. Jacana Bird. This is the most unnecessary cursed nonsense. i deserve an apology for having to look at this. I can feel its fingers stroking my ears

No it does not have SIX FREAKING LIMBS. it’s carrying its stupid creepy spawn under its wings. A+ parents but still, piss off. even the normal 2 legged version isn’t much better

put those AWAY.

4. The Shoebill, which i’m sure we’re all sick of hearing about. this thing is the epitome of a crappy photorealistic cgi disney villainy. i despise this bird.

also this is what they look like standing up. i just feel like i shouldn’t have to deal with that, i really do.

5. Inca Tern. truly, hipsters ruin everything

6. Tragopan. it looks like a star wars species, which i dislike on principle 

7. The Secretary Bird. it wears yoga pants.

also i’m uncomfortable with the length of its eyelashes

8. finally, i really dislike this one specific parakeet

in conclusion, these birds exist to haunt me and this knowledge is a burden. birds exist to observe our sin; always watching, they are filled with malice. flee from them

[captainlordauditor]

I was like, “these are all fine” until I saw the shoebill standing up. What the fuck.

[wolg-fang]

This is so rude miss Secretary Bird is serving FACE
