Weekend #Plankton #Factoid 🦠🦐

#Copepod #zooplankton are the most numerous metazoans on the planet, and some have evolved into fantastical forms. Take Calocalanus pavo, the beautiful "peacock copepod", which has amazingly plumed antenna and caudal rami. It is small, ~1mm long, and uses the plumes to slow its sinking for feeding in the upper #ocean. It is famous for being very prominent in Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur (1904) plate 54 #watercolour paintings of copepoda.

"Winter Song" is my new #painting about those bright winter days of lemon and pink skies, when the air is clear and cold, and the #birdsong rings louder than ever.

As well as the little robin belting out his sweet song, I've included other winter birds: fieldfare, waxwing, redwing, and (my favourites) starlings.

Thanks for looking. 🙏
