Inject a little science into your Valentines Day with LOVE BUGS valentines!

GET 'EM HERE!

I really love putting science into things people are already doing. Each of these cards has a fact about the animal AND something you can do to HELP the animal. Let's care for our native insects! We love biodiversity!

(I also love getting snail mail. It's just a delight.)

Send these with your kid to school for valentines day exchanges, send them to your friends, bring them to work to bring a little joy (and science!) to the office.

They were designed by Michele Scott in Philly, and printed & packed here at Skype a Scientist HQ (also in Philly).

All sales support science education nonprofit Skype a Scientist!

Tell your friends. Get some Love bugs.

It is strange to think something so intrinsic to humans may be so detrimental to another.

Bug Fact: The glow of artificial light does not actually attract bugs, it interferes with their natural sense of direction.

“Unable to secure food, easily spotted by predators and prone to exhaustion... Many die before the morning comes.” - The Conversation

Keep your lights off at night when you can.

#long bug fact!#Seriously tho. there has been a huge decline in native insects around the world for decades. Be mindful PLEASE.#Insects are not to be take for granted.#Just like fish they can be killed in such numbers- many may never be able to recover. AND WE NEED THEM.#my art #art #bugs #hollow knight #hollow knight au #hollow knight hollow #dewi #dewi's adventures in hollow knight

drawing your favorite guys being silly is very effective at keeping The Horrors at bay

bonus doc from a different canvas:

#back to the future #bttf #bttf fanart #marty mcfly #doc brown #emmett brown #kit does an art #yeah i have ten million other things i should probably be drawing instead (rip askbox left to dry...) but #sometimes you just need to draw your favorite guys giving each other physical affection. actual health benefits from this. would recommend #was feeling The Horror beforehand and then i drew them hugging and suddenly The Horror was gone! scientifically proven [citation needed]#the one where doc picks him up and spins him around makes me unreasonably happy i love being an artist!!!!#some of the other little doodles were just bc i still had the doodle bug but didn't want to commit to another big drawing haha #when in doubt give them the dotdotdot expression #the first drawing is based off of this gifset i saw of mjf jumping into other people's arms #good gifset. will need to look for it again. that man can jump #it's also a redraw! i drew the same thing when i first fell into this fandom hole #but that was before i knew how to draw them 100% so i never posted it haha #i love their stupid antennae. especially docs. he can go ! and ? and sometimes <3 it's so funny to me i love that thing #the one where he's sending radio waves to marty is soo stupid i keep laughing when i look at it #'marty. do not listen to that guy call you a chicken. stay calm' 'shit the signal's weak he didn't get my message'#tag as ship and a plague of locusts will be upon ye.#and yes. they are invasive and WILL wreak havoc on your local native wildlife

Ok figured out how to draw him we’re good now

#I’ve caught multiple rainbow scarabs irl. They’re native here #I should’ve drawn him so much Sooner . I know him. In real life #. Which reminds me if he’s supposed to be a rainbow scarab why doesn’t he have a red pronotum . Ok anyway #clamart #bug fables #bf Kabbu #bf Vi #Bf Leif

If you are currently waiting for your observations on iNaturalist to be identified, consider starting identifying other people’s work!

in 2024, 88.15% of inat users only submitted observations, that’s a big job for the other 11.85%. I know it can be intimidating at first, especially if you’re new, but consider working through it by species. By working through observations through species you can quickly tell which one is which, and when in doubt use the inat identifier to check. Reminder that it’s okay to be wrong, we’re here to learn from each other. :)
