The porphyrins in Northern Saw-whet Owl feathers glow under UV light. They degrade over time, so older feathers glow less intensely than new feathers. This bird has a clear molt limit between old juvenile feathers and new basic feathers, meaning she was born last summer!

It's #Caturday, and I had to share this picture-perfect shot of Niño the #bobcat on #cameratrap.
When my Bengal kitty, Niña, passed in March, I asked her to send me a sign she was OK - specifically a new, resident bobcat... He is now around 4-5xs a week!!!
Fun Fact! The rediscovery of this species was done on iNaturalist, by a user who has no profile photo, no description, and has made less than 50 observations. Their first two observations ever were two of these guys, and in an entirely new locality for the species to boot. Crazy.
Today's Critically Endangered Species of the Day is the Cofre de Perote Salamander (Isthmura naucampatepetl)
Native to the Sierra Madre Oriental in Mexico, they were rediscovered in 2015, 34 years after the last sighting.
Their major threats are habitat loss and Chytrid Fungus.
The Economist just published a deeply-researched story about car bloat, and it's very, very damning:
"For every life that the heaviest 1% of SUVs and trucks save, there are more than a dozen lives lost in other vehicles."
