I went out to sea and saw over 500 #cetaceans. Many of these animals are changing their distributions and habits - why, and what do we know? A discussion... tetzoo.com/blog/2025/7/16… #whales #dolphins #marinemammals

Weekend scenes from the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT). Most surreal and fascinating plane: the U-2. Sounds incredible and flies like nothing else.
I'm reviewing an academic book that I quite like, but I cannot ignore the fact that it's highly expensive (£100), and hence out of reach to many people. I can't ignore this. Should I emphasize it in my review?
From today, there are just >>25 days left<< until #DinoConUK 2025! Hundreds of people are coming, it's going to be the largest dinosaur-themed gathering the UK has seen :) Think Comic Con, but #dinosaurs! Info and tickets: dinocon.co.uk
Sunday afternoon at #DinoConUK 2025 will include a #palaeoart panel, where I discuss modern palaeoart with four working palaeoartists. Where are we at, and where are we going? We're finalising our talking points now. Hope to see you there! Tickets & info: dinocon.co.uk
The Expeditionlive! Crew is back in the Straight Cliffs, Utah trying to fill in one of the worst gaps in North American Dinosaur Evolution. Not easy to find #dinosaurs here. Happy to be working a new site with ankykosaur bones and now some hadrosaur skull. #dinodig25
Famous artist and #AllYesterdays co-creator C M Kösemen @cmkosemen will be at #DinoConUK and selling original artwork! Here are just a few of the many many images he'll have with him :) #palaeoart #dinosaurs
My book Ancient Sea Reptiles - basically out of print here in the UK - is now out in Japan! That's great news and I look forward to seeing the Japanese version :) prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p… via @PRTIMES_JP
It is due to arrive tomorrow! I'm so excited!
