Muy de acuerdo y muy necesaria reflexión de @cmhmaliani.bsky.social para tomar 📝

- el origen de todo es la tendencia a humanizar y simplificar todo lo que nos rodea...
...y quizás lo hagamos en exceso, también cuando hacemos difusión. En ocasiones rozando la mistificación en ecología...

¡En el blog de @eco-aeet.bsky.social se publica un nuevo post!

En esta ocasión, @cmhmaliani.bsky.social reflexiona sobre el concepto “desbiologización” o cómo, de forma inconsciente o premeditada, se niega lo biológico en lo viviente no humano.

Another happy place & probably the best bar in the world. Bit limited on stock & a bit pricey, but it's a helluva walk to the next bar 😆

scots pine trees with a hillside behind. Patches of snow remain on the hill

Scots pine silhouette in the Caledonian forest. The patches of melting snow on the hill behind made for an interesting and unusual backdrop (I think so anyway!).

What thrives under maritime pines? The sandy, nutrient-poor soils of the #Landes de Gascogne select for resilient native specialists like Ulex gallii, Cytisus scoparius & Arbutus unedo. Today, they face competition from the invasive Australian Acacia dealbata. 🌲🌿 #botany #ForestEcology

Yo tampoco era consciente Javier de los peligros para podadores, también me ha llamado mucho la atención... Mira que en el S de California (quizá la meca de la Washingtonias?) las dejan muy frecuentemente con todas las hojas secas!

Ey Javier! Un superpeligro, eso, sí. Las hojas al entrar en senescencia se quedan adheridas y pueden acumular mucho peso. Cuando los peciolos van cediendo, llega un momento en el que todo puede caer de golpe rodeando al tallo...

Pourquoi les végétaux des milieux extrêmes sont-ils souvent en forme de boule ? Dans les sommets alpins comme dans le désert marocain, de drôles de plantes à port en boule couvrent les paysages. Car, dans ces milieux extrêmes, cette silhouette a des bénéfices multiples.

A nice thing about the dark spots of C. ladanifer is that in sunny windless days they are a little warmer than the white petal area. I bet it's not by chance that the spots are the preferred standing places for ectothermic pollinators such as these flies (Stomorhina lunata and Eristalinus taeniops).

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
A star-of-Bethlehem, woode anemone and spurge c.1506-12

The focus of this drawing is a clump of star-of-Bethlehem (Ornithogalum umbellatum L.), whose swirling leaves are seen in the studies for the kneeling Leda and in most copies of the painting, where it softens the edge of the rock on which the swan stands (the same device is seen by the infant Baptist’s legs in the St Anne cartoon, of a similar date).

Flanking the star-of-Bethlehem is wood anemone (Anemone nemorosa L.), and below is sun spurge (Euphorbia helioscopia L.) with details of its seedheads. Although the star-of-Bethlehem is somewhat stylised, the blades of grass growing untidily among and behind the anemones suggest that Leonardo observed these plants in the wild. Melzi's number 130.

Provenance
Bequeathed to Francesco Melzi; from whose heirs purchased by Pompeo Leoni, c.1582-90; Thomas Howard, 14th Earl of Arundel, by 1630; probably acquired by Charles II; Royal Collection by 1690

Renaissance man and polymath Da Vinci was deeply interested in botany; many of his better-known works include signs of his careful examination of plants.
