Behold! The small spotted #catshark
Cute as a button, chilled out, an aquarists dream thanks to their no nonsense husbandry requirements, & absolute martyrs serving as the study subject of choice for #shark researchers for decades!

Discoveries from the last frontier still little known to humankind on Earth; the depths of the (in this case Australian) sea.

An absolutely stunning #FossilFriday for you, this beautiful piece full of brittlestars was saved by Chris Moore and prepared by Alex Moore. Just one of the brand new fossils we'll have on display in 2025 so stay tuned for more and be sure to come and check them out in person!

More thinking about #BrittleStars. Inspired by Alister Hardy’s paintings of Brittlestars at the Continuous #Plankton Recorder Survey, #Plymouth. Sampling the stripy arms with #BeadWeaving.

They used to be regular mermaids. But they fell into a deep slumber and turned into cursed brittlestars. They cause madness and sorrow to anyone who gazes upon them, and aren't conscious for any of it.

A brief morning of #rockpooling on a rising tide today at Skinningrove produced some fabulous common brittlestars, a shanny or two, a good-sized edible crab and also lots of fossil belemnites

Back down to Landguard this morning a single Goldeneye went north was the best bird seen with a Red throated Diver going south 6 Kittiwakes following shipping 2 Turnstones 2 Ringed Plovers and 2 Rock Pipits at the point plus 17 Common Scoters on the sea. Brittlestars by the thousands were washed up

First of all, how goddamn cool is "Brittlestar" as a nickname? Second of all, how goddamn brilliant a premise!
I just watched a documentary about brittlestars. Wonderful little neighborly freaks. And I love cats.
