Larger than marble-sized hail in Gainesville Florida just now

Just heard this week’s @radiolab on Jo Nagai, a 10-year-old who discovered how butterflies learn. Touching story—his work is university level. He speaks fluent English—super impressive for a native Japanese kid. Check out research + podcast link below: npr.org/podcasts/45253…

🦋 Studying the 160,000 species of butterflies and moths helps us understand their evolution, genetics, and behaviors. Every species tells a unique story about survival and adaptation. What’s your favorite butterfly species to learn about? 📚🌍 #Lepidoptera #ScienceResearch

🦇 Did you know that moths use ultrasound to defend against bats? This fascinating predator-prey interaction shows how evolution has equipped moths with tools to survive in the wild! 🔊🦋 #MothDefense #BatSonar #UltrasoundTech

Today is EARTH DAY!  Let's be kind to our planet. It's the only place we have to live! Some things you can do today (and any day!): Plant a tree, Carpool, Bike, Walk, Use public transport, Recycle, Compost, Use reusable water bottles, Pick up trash, Use less paper #EarthDay2025

It's May, which means more brilliant butterflies and moths to look out for! 🌷🦋 Butterflies need wilder parks and gardens. Will you promise to let your lawn grow long for butterflies this summer? Pledge to grow not mow 👉 butterfly-conservation.org/make-your-prom… #SaveButterflies #MothsMatter

This feels like a positive direction for FLORIDA and the future of the university!

Very fun few days with Jo Nagai, the wunderkid of Japanese entomology. We spent time looking for butterflies and moths! My dad did this with me - it’s nice to help the next generation. We went to the Japanese bug hotel!
