this encounter seems very intimate and magical, like a moment in a dream
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen. The end of it omfg
It should also be noted that in the original post of this that I saw on FB, it’s remarked upon that the cat is stealing this stuffed tiger from the neighbor’s house. This is not his stuffed animal. He has stolen it multiple times apparently.
It’s time for another pre/post glaze-fire comparison video, this time feat. SPINX! Most of these are various Coyote celadons over sgraffito/coloured slip, except for the one with solid turquoise wings, who has Mayco speckled plum on its body & Amaco tourmaline on its wings!
Horned beetles demonstrate alternative mating strategies due to different nutritious conditions during development that affect adult body size. In this species, males who receive high levels of nutrition during development will surpass a size threshold above which they develop large horns. Males who do not pass the threshold will develop either small or nonexistent horns. These varying phenotypes will lead individual males to adopt different mating strategies. Those who develop long horns will practice mate guarding, protecting the entrance to the tunnel in which a female is resting or feeding. These males will fight any male that attempts to enter. This is a common strategy observed in populations in which females are dispersed and have synchronized periods of fertility, as well as those in which females are found in clusters that can be guarded to maintain access to more than one female.
Smaller males with little or no horns have little chance of beating larger males in altercations and will thus adopt an alternative sneaking strategy, digging a new tunnel that will allow them to intercept the female’s tunnel without being noticed by the guarding male. Both of these strategies have proven, thus far, to be reproductively effective for the males practicing them, and adoption of these alternative mating strategies has contributed to the maintenance of a dimorphic male population.[3]

Traditional Muganatip Bamboo Stick dance at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.
Magunatip is a traditional dance from Sabah. It has its origin in the Philippines, and is popularly known as the Bamboo Dance.
Magunatip is often performed by the Kwijau and Murut tribes. The word “magunatip” comes from the word “apit” which means “to be caught between two (bamboo) sticks”.
The dance starts slowly and the tempo gradually increases to display the skill of the dancers in negotiating their feet in and out of the bamboo poles. Due to the element of danger in getting one’s foot caught between the bamboo, Magunatip dance creates excitement and bring life to many celebrations.
These dances include the very popular Magunatip dance or bamboo dance, where rapid foot works are a must in tempo with the many long bamboo sticks knocking against each other.
