Tortoise egg time of year again. Hopefully with how early in the year these were laid I will get another clutch from my big female this summer. April 7, 2021

Forgot to upload photos of these cute little baby tortoises from last year. They found new homes already but hopefully there will be more this year too :) So special to be able to watch these adorable new tortoises grow. August 24, 2020

We had some unexpectedly cold and strong rain that required the tegus to be brought inside. I might have to buy a second bin to keep these things in during the cold winter storms! Crazy and wonderful how big they are getting. January 23 & 29, 2021

So funny to discover some more of my old fungi photos were flagged as adult content! Why does tumblr do these things haha

Soviet surplus БДЭГ-01Р // BDEG-01R scintillation probe I bought this on a bit of an impulse buy (seller accepted a very low eBay offer). This has a 63x63mm NaI(Tl) crystal in it paired with a ФЭУ-82 (FEU-82) photomultiplier tube. Need to get some new hardware to finish this up before I will be ready to try doing any gamma spectrometry testing with this. The PMT has pretty underwhelming specs of "≤13%" resolution so I am not expecting anything too impressive from it besides the count rate out of a crystal that large. May have to consider swapping it out for a better photomultiplier tube in the future...

Went to the tide pools down in Dana Point the other day and found this little beauty right near the stairs. Always fun to find a nude at the beach...and take its photo. Spanish Shawl Nudibranch - Flabellinopsis iodinea February 7, 2020

Detailed comparison of just the 1 hr trinitite spectrum versus a 1hr background measurement. Looks pretty good! Can definitely tell that we are dealing with more than just your average hot rock here.
