It's #Easter Sunday! ๐ŸŒฑ

No cute bunnies or lambs in my files, I'm afraid. But I do have a *lot* of queer chickens. ๐Ÿฅš๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿค  ๐Ÿ”

Here's a domestic hen with male plumage, described in the Memoirs of the Wernerian Natural History Society in 1821.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’œ

Working on my forthcoming book, finding out about English suffragist and naturalist Lydia Ernestine Becker was a revelation. In 1869, she made an inclusive, science-based case for women's rights. Just awesome! ๐Ÿคฉ

Happy #ValentinesDay! ๐ŸŒโค๏ธ๐ŸŒ

Delightful, if fanciful, depiction of garden snails exchanging love darts. By English artist Frederick Polydore Nodder and published in the Naturalistโ€™s Miscellany in 1790. [The darts donโ€™t propel through the air as the image depicts but are fired on contact.]

'all nature is perverse & will not do as I wish it'
- Charles Darwin, 7 May 1855

Poor ol' Chas.

It's #DarwinDay! ๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿต๐ŸŸ

Here's an unsung hero in Darwin's queer menagerie, Serranus cabrilla. It proved that vertebrate species could be hermaphrodite. That made Chas happy!

This lovely fish will have a starring role in my book . . . ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ ๐Ÿ“š

Btw, my gorgeous cover star is a gynandromorph gypsy moth, female on its left side, male on the right. It was caught in Berlin in July 1864 and pictured by German entomologist Ernst Ludwig Taschenberg in 1877. It makes more than one appearance in my book!
