Achim Wagner, 1967 yılında Almanya’nın güneydoğusundaki Coburg kentinde doğdu. Ankara ve Berlin arasında yaşayan Wagner; şiir, düzyazı, tiyatro ve makale türlerinde üretim yapan çok yönlü bir edebiyatçı. Bugüne kadar yayımlanmış yedi kitabı bulunan Wagner, çalışmalarıyla pek çok edebiyat ödülüne layık görüldü. Bu ödüller arasında, 2009 yılında Kunststiftung Nordrhein-Westfalen tarafından verilen ve altı ay süren İstanbul bursu da yer alıyor. Wagner’in Türkiye ile kurduğu edebi bağ da bu süreçte başladı. 2010 yılından bu yana şiirleri düzenli olarak Şiiri Özlüyorum dergisinde yayımlanan Wagner, Hafif Coğrafya kitabındaki şiirlerini Türkçe kaleme aldı. Edebiyat çalışmalarının yanı sıra fotoğrafla da ilgilenen Achim Wagner’in ilk kişisel fotoğraf sergisi 2012 yılında ODTÜ’de açıldı.

Who here loves the gooey gloopiness of mudpots??

Formed by standing surface water acidic enough to dissolve surrounding rock into clay, mudpots have a similar structure to hot springs but with a lower water supply, hence their gloopiness (not a technical term by the way, but it just feels right... right?). When you visit a thermal area in Yellowstone, you're also likely to smell the mudpots before you see them - that's due to the hydrogen sulfide gas that emanates through the mud. Rotten eggs, anyone? Mmmmm, yummy!

Popular mudpots in the park include Artists Paintpots (pictured here), Fountain Paint Pot, Mud Volcano, and West Thumb Paintpots.

In a week or two, aspens will reveal their hidden colors. The yellows and oranges were always there—chlorophyll just masked them. As days shorten and temps drop, chlorophyll fades, unveiling fall’s brilliance. Enjoy the green while it lasts—the reveal is near!

Fox steals man’s phone and live streams its escape in Russia’s Sakhalin

A Russian tourist has had the unusual distinction of having his phone stolen by a fox on the island of Sakhalin in Russia’s Far East, local media outlets reported last week.

The man, upon seeing a fox on a beach, started teasing the animal by showing it his phone as if it were food, saying “look at this delicious phone”. When the animal approached, it quickly whipped the phone out of the man’s hands and ran away. Realising the phone was not edible, the fox dropped it, leaving it in the sand. The man was promptly reunited with his phone and hopefully learned his lesson.

A Rufous treepie - I was happy that I got my first clear view of this lovely bird. Almost every early morning, their sounds are my alarm.

It's not often that I get to see a Rufous-tailed Hummingbird (Amazilia tzacatl) in the garden, but this week one dared to visit and stayed despite repeated attacks by the resident Cinnamon Hummingbirds. Hope it stay.
