aterOkay, not an insect and possibly stretching the definition of "marsh" for <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/MarshMadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarshMadness</a>; but today I painted an eelgrass isopod, Pentidotea resecata, because they're adorable. Just look at them. They get their bright green coloring from the eelgrass they eat; individuals grown on brown kelp tend to be brown. This probably helps them blend in better to their environment.<a href="https://sb17.space/tags/SciArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciArt</a> <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/InvertArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InvertArt</a> <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/watercolor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watercolor</a>

CambirdsongCaught a quick view of a normally skulky Marsh Wren perched on a pile of rushes, stones, and pieces of a broken fence in the middle of a small stream in May of 2023 - an exciting lifer sighting on my fifth day of retirement. <a href="https://birds.town/tags/MarshMadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarshMadness</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/wrens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wrens</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birds</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birding</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/SolaceInNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SolaceInNature</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NaturePhotography</a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/DelightOverDarkness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DelightOverDarkness</a>

Sunguramy :nb_lily:<a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/MarshMadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarshMadness</a> day 20 :boost_requested: Bashful Wakerobin (Trillium catesbaei) found near the water's edge of a marsh. Reminder: Please go to: <a href="https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/02/25/2025-03014/removal-of-national-environmental-policy-act-implementing-regulations" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/02/25/2025-03014/removal-of-national-environmental-policy-act-implementing-regulations</a> and leave your comment. Removal of NEPA destroys almost all environment protections in the United States. If you were worried they will destroy the National Parks for profit, rest assured this is the first step. By removing NEPA, they *will be able to*. Easily.We have only six more days to comment about the looming removal of NEPA: National Environmental Policy Act. This act was a simple yet very effective framework for protecting our environment and has far and wide reaching positive effects. It is often called the "Magna Carta" of our environment laws. NEPA was one of the first laws ever written that establishes the broad national framework for protecting our environment. For example, sewage treatment to ensure clean water is a direct result from NEPA. It was signed into law by Nixon, and has enjoyed bipartisan support. <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/trillium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trillium</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wildflower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wildflower</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bloomscrolling</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/ecology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ecology</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#environment</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/epa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#epa</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/marsh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#marsh</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wetland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wetland</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/NationalParks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NationalParks</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/NPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NPS</a>

aterToday for <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/MarshMadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarshMadness</a> I painted a saltmarsh tiger beetle, Eunota severa. Or is it Habroscelimorpha severa? Cicindela severa? Someone should probably do a taxonomic review.I'm not terribly fond of taxonomy, but I am obsessed with tiger beetles (Cicindelidae), some of the fastest predators out there. At speeds up to 125 body lengths per second, even those enormous eyes can't take in enough light to see their surroundings. Imagine being so fast you go blind!I don't have to - my eyesight is slow af. I didn't realize there was such a temporal component to vision until I started losing it.<a href="https://sb17.space/tags/SciArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciArt</a> <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/InsectArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InsectArt</a> <a href="https://sb17.space/tags/watercolor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watercolor</a>
