Jasper had so much fun at the beach today that he was too tired to do anything else but lie down and chew sticks or sleep for the rest of the day 😂

Starting 2025 at the beach with Jasper, watching the kite surfers, running through the shallows 🏖️☀️🌊

Part 3 of Summer in Melbourne. Jasper is now a staunch backyard cricket fan and he has opinions about the fielding

Oh Krish! 🙈 it was such a great Test though! If only you were here, tickets to Day 5 were only $10! We could’ve lived at the G for 5 days 😂

Part 2 of Summer in Melbourne. The most insane Test cricket match, what a nail biter and what a pressure cooker of a field 😂 #AUSvIND

How to tell if your failure is intelligent? This is a great infographic and is based on the book by @amycedmondson.bsky.social “The Right Kind of Wrong” (which is a great read/audiobook btw!) 📚

Very cool 😊 human lenses also grow in layers throughout life, cells grow from the back of the lens and lose their cellular contents… but I don’t think we’ve ever looked at them for foraging ecology though 😉 interesting paper!

I always find deep sea fish eyes and how they see, so fascinating 👀
