Alright Twitter hivemind - is this a fungal infection of this Asian Lady Beetle? Found in the hallway by a member of the @AltindisL lab. #Insect

Since it is project time for my course here is a gif of a cool budding Hydra. @BostonCollege #Hydra

On #TheHeights this morning. St. Ignatius - sing it with me: He's got the whole moon in his hands.... @bostoncollege Have a great day #eagles

Back home for the weekend and my son wanted to visit the @CUintheGarden @Cornell - specifically he requested as the first stop the McClintock Shed and associated garden. He left inspired. Big things in store for him. #scienceallthetime

Aurora borealis over Natick, MA tonight. I thought @growingwisdom might enjoy this.

My son found Spotted lanternfly at Mass Bay CC. Cute but a problem. If you need a high school intern @MassDEP or @MassDCR next summer just let me know. Also @TownOfWellesley just FYI.

My kids are taking Sophomore Chemistry and one of the labs safety rules is to always wear safety glasses. I was reminded of this classic sign from @CornellChem @Cornell I am sure I saw this sign in Biotech also - @CornellMBG

Spent part of the day in Woods Hole. Got a cool tour of the Microbial Diversity MBL lab from @archaeal and a nice chat with @environmicrobio about magnetotactic bacteria. Ended the night at Little Sippewissett marsh and Seafood Sam's. Thanks Brett and family.

A nice walk at Wachusett mountain with the Boston Mycological Club. My son found a cool fungus - Microglossum viride! Featured in their newsletter. Thanks to Thomas Roehl from the @hibbett_s lab for leading. #mycology #fungi #Mushroom

Another @BC_Volleyball college prep camp in the books. Thanks again for having Audrey. #GoEagles

My daughter recently spent 2 weeks at #volleyball camp in Serbia with the legendary coach @grbic_vladimir A transformational experience for her. She definitely leveled up. Thanks Coach and the rest of the staff at Camp Vladimir Vanja Grbić

A fine evening for a plankton tow in Little Sippewissett Marsh. @MBLScience @WHOI Also looked for Tree Lungwort in Mashpee but no luck and only 2 ticks!

If your allergies were/are bad and you saw scenes like this after yesterday's rain you can thank the Eastern White Pine - Pinus strobus pollen is the main culprit. Also shown are individual grains on the microscope. Air filled sacs help disperse the pollen. #Boston Go @celtics

Hey #Boston wondering what that yellow haze is in the air? Allergies bad? Say hello to Pinus strobus pollen! Taken on our @LeicaMicro Stellaris 5. Go @celtics

My son was collecting samples and came across a ton of #Stentor @mmslabodnick Oliver wanted you to see and wondered if you could ID based on this?

We always look at Tardigrades for class. Felt sorry for this little guy - eventually it found its way. #Tardigrade @tardigradopedia
