This year's #kakapo breeding season has been the biggest on record:
- 256 eggs (252 in 2019)
- 148 fertile eggs (116 in 2019)
- 105 eggs hatched (86 in 2019).
It'll be 2+ months until we know how many chicks will fledge (73 in 2019). There are currently 95 alive. #conservation #kakapo2026 #birds

@creativesatbc.bsky.social Amir is graduating this spring and I'm going to miss his #bcvammm energy and beautiful artwork! I hope he'll come back to our #bcvammm takeovers wherever he ends up after life at BC. #2026MMM Thank you Amir, truly!
He's created a wonderful site wp.bridgewater.edu/mmm/ that he's maintained for me of the past 4 years! AND most importantly, he started the @creativesatbc.bsky.social live art-work contributions and takeovers, making our STEM event and much-improved STEAM events and enriching #bcvammm #2026MMM
