The outline of the Great Skellig through my binoculars. 'Skellig' is Irish for 'stone splinter', and it was home to a monastic settlement possibly founded in the 6th century. The Skelligs are hugely important nesting sites for such seabirds as puffins, gannets and razorbills.

There's a new #elephant mum in our midst! Last week, an orphan we rescued, raised and returned to the wild gave birth. Even more special, new mum Makena chose to share this joyous occasion with us, bringing her hours-old baby 'home' to meet her human family.

Faggots have been used since the Roman Occupation to trap silt/reinforce banks and guide the flow in rivers/wetlands. Soft engineering like this is better than hard landscaping for flood management.

July 27, 1966: The Navy’s top admiral questions the necessity of diverting so many ships and personnel for NASA’s spacecraft recovery operations. “Get your own Navy,” Admiral David McDonald says in a speech, words The Washington Post suggests are meant “only partly in jest.”

One of the oldest rocks in existence, the Murchison Meteorite. It’s 4,600,000,000 years old, and likely existed before the Earth itself had completely formed. Interestingly, it also contains amino acids, the chemical building blocks of DNA. Photo via u/bpoag on reddit.
