Interesse in werken met digitale informatie over #biodiversiteit en productontwikkeling op dat vlak? Dan hebben we bij @museumnaturalis een mooie #vacature bij de afdeling Collectie Informatie (nog een paar dagen om te reageren): naturalis.nl/over-ons/werken…
Het idee stamt al uit 2011, en de afgelopen 1,5 jaar hebben we dit eindelijk gerealiseerd. Mooi project en mooie stap voorwaarts voor @xenocanto!
De sprookjesachtige schoolplaat "In het bosch" van Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek (1873-1944) siert sinds vanmiddag een van de kamers in mijn nieuwe appartement. Het resultaat is prachtig! (behang van naturalisunlimited.com)
Urban garden safari in my 200 m² allotment garden this morning. A striped bug feeding on a huge flowering parsnip (a real biodiversity hotspot!) and an azure damselfly resting on lemon balm (great plant for infusion tea). Say yes to insects!
Mooi crowdsourcing-project van @FLORON om geo-coördinaten toe te voegen aan de plantencollectie van @museumnaturalis. Verrijkte informatie beschikbaar via collectiedatabase van Naturalis, NDFF Verspreidingsatlas en GBIF: 3x winst! naturetoday.com/intl/nl/natu…
Alle topstukken uit de tentoonstelling "Van onschatbare waarde, 200 jaar Naturalis" digitaal bij elkaar: topstukken.naturalis.nl/verz… -- ook te zien in @museumnaturalis tijdens ons jubileumjaar nu.
We renewed the institutional repository of @Naturalis_Sci, which provides access to open access staff publications and Naturalis journals and series. repository.naturalis.nl
Call for papers alert! International conference Collect & Connect: Archives and Collections in a Digital Age hosted by @museumnaturalis on November 23-24. Paper submission deadline is September 11. sites.google.com/naturalis.n…

Happy XC birthday!! 15 years ago today Xeno-canto was started by Bob & WP. Just yesterday we reached 1 million identified bird sounds. Awesome present! Thanks for sharing everyone!
RIP Jerry Stiller. You will continue to bring me laughs for years to come, through all those timeless Seinfeld episodes. Serenity now! youtube.com/watch?v=uArmS9Jg…

Trump is racing to build his despicable #BorderWall through the most stunning & remote corner of Arizona.
Last week I took a trip down the historic Devil's Highway to document the heartbreaking destruction & share it with the world.
I came home horrified by what I saw.
Here's the song of woodlark (Lullula arborea), which I recorded in the Dutch national park De Maasduinen earlier this month. An odd combination of melancholy and springtime optimism, perhaps fitting in these confusing coronavirus times. xeno-canto.org/536598 #birdsong
On April 3, @rewirefestival is organizing their annual symposium in The Hague: "The Changing Sonic Landscape". Program is worth checking out. @xenocanto will be present to give a lecture, too. #bioacoustics #soundscapes rewirefestival.nl/event/rewi…
