A few months back I was consulted by KQED Deep Look on diving alkali flies for a video they were filming. It was a fun experience and I’m always happy to help out with science communication projects! Check out the finished product: m.youtube.com/watch?v=T88hBW…
Just finished this book and man, was it a blast to read! Shoutout to @Jay_Hosler for perfectly combining cool illustrations, awesome science, and great storytelling 🪲 📚
So sweet! My aunt was talking to her dermatologist about me and his mom happened to be an entomologist so the next time she went in, he had this book for her to mail me 🥹 Good people still exist in this world ❤️
