When you look at some fern spores under a microscope and the spores are just like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#sporespondence #fernfriday

@anomalocaris tempted to take out the microscope for this!
@barrygoldman1 Every species is different, it's lots of fun
@anomalocaris I looked at this way too long thinking those were weird looking sunspots.
@anomalocaris
I needed to see this just now. Thanks for the smile.
@anomalocaris okay so what I’m seeing is that I can just extend and wiggle my limbs while dancing and call it The Fern 

@anomalocaris @jackyan
I get a similar effect using one side of my binoculars as a telephoto lens.

Since binoculars, reversed, can be used as a crude field microscope, I wonder if the same effect appears.

@anomalocaris @jackyan
🤣 It does, kinda... And it works, kinda...

Thank you for giving me the impetus/idea to try it. 😜

@anomalocaris having observed both ferns in my garden and wild ferns in the local woodland this very much stacks up. FDGAF (Ferns don't give a fuck). After stinging nettles and the absolute Goat of wild plants in the UK, blackberry brambles, ferns are unstoppable

Be more fern

@anomalocaris it looks like an XKCD cartoon!
@anomalocaris is this from a specific species ?
@anomalocaris i'm getting similar vibes from dragonflies - it's almost like nature is trying to tell us something
