Greetings from Kazakhstan! I found a nest of a kestrel last week, and can't specify if this Steppe kestrel or the common one. Is it possible to indentify? Momma was nearby and sadly i did not saw her plumage (Kids are safe & fed)

Hello, Kestrel here.

I understand steppe kestrel is the literal translation for the Kazakh common name of F. naumanni. In that case, these appear to be steppe kestrel chicks as their talons are white/pale. In common kestrel F. tinnunculus the talons tend to be black/dark.

I like drawing snakes

I hope someday DeKay's Brown Snakes become at least a decent part of the reptile-keeping hobby, and that maybe some morphs will be discovered, like Albinism, Melanism, or Piebaldism. I mean seriously, I looked to see if there were ANY on Morph Market, any breeders on Facebook or Instagram, but no, the only ones for sale are being sold by companies known for selling wild caught, diseased, dying, or dead animals. come on bros

Well hello

Hi!!!!! Thank you so much for running this blog! I had no idea isopods were so diverse and amazing! I found some isopods in the basement and may I please ask what species/genus they are so that I can learn a bit more about them? He was a really beefy boi (maybe the biggest I’ve ever seen) and about 3/4 of an inch. He’s in western Canada.

Thank you so much!!!! :)

Hello! Thank you even more for caring about isopods!! I’m glad I could show you these little guys. I believe this one to be a Porcellio spinicornis.

If you want to learn more about North American isopods, I recommend the American Isopod and Myriapod group! Some of the site is under construction, but they have a very good amount of information, as well as links to other resources, and I have found them helpful before.
