Sometimes I find things on my hikes or at the foot of the climbing rocks. Mostly they are made out of plastic. Often it's obvious what they are. But sometimes I really have no glue. Maybe you know it?

This thing is clear I think: It is a seahorse shaped foam rubber thing. Is it from swimwear? In germany when you learn to swim you can earn the so called "Seepferdchen" (seahorse) and you can patch it to your swinwear. It shows that you can swim a short distance and dive in shoulderdeep water.

The 1859 artwork ‘Ocean Life’ gives a wonderful impression of the real-life complexity which few humans then had the chance to see; Helen Scales describes some of its 75 species. For those of us looking out for #IconicFishes, a #seahorse & #cornetfish stand out. 🧵 3/

The fish with trumpet-like snout & the "web-footed horse" illustrated by JB Clark for 'The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen' will interest @iconicfishes - & can you find the seahorse in the second image, 'Water' by Giuseppe Arcimboldo? 🧵 2/

I hugely enjoyed ‘Ocean Art'. It’s teeming with wondrous creatures, & human perceptions changing due to both art & science. Helen Scales' first book was on seahorses, & here it’s her first image.
