Learning to prepare #herbarium specimens in #bisonflowers art+botany class. Collections made during class last week, in drier over weekend, labels created and specimens mounted today. @annakkell #iamabotanist

[Anna Kell @annakkell]

@SarraceniaMason @MartineBotany Mostly a lot of distance (we have two adjacent rooms), being outside if possible, being remote if in-person not especially advantageous. And masks. A lot of masks. 😷 ✌️

[Chris Martine | Plants are Cool, Too! @MartineBotany]

Learning how to collect and press plant specimens today in our #bisonflowers art+botany class. Next week: herbarium mounting! #iamabotanist @annakkell

Certains scientifiques donnent vraiment de leur personne pour expliquer comment fonctionnent les plantes. Vraiment. 🤣 La pollinisation de l'ophrys abeille comme vous ne l'avez jamais vue !

[Chris Martine | Plants are Cool, Too! @MartineBotany]

On #PlantAppreciationDay each of our #bisonflowers art+botany students closely examined a herbarium specimen - from plant parts to label data. Then graded it based on quality, comprehensiveness, and aesthetics. Next week: making their own! @annakkell

Certains cactus sont pollinisés par les chauve-souris. Oui. Et ce costume de cactus est scandaleux. N'est ce pas @curiosiboite ? 😂

@ballardhighbot1 Love that idea!

Clip from: Pollination of Trochetia on "Mauritius" by day gecko! Wearable art and performance by Kelly (Math), Raquel (Neuro), Sophie (Art), Maggie (Mgmt), all @BucknellU '23. #bisonflowers #pollinators #sciart #herps @annakkell

🎧sound on!

[Anna Kell @annakkell]

so the #pollinationperformances our botany+art students just created are kind of hard to share, but maybe this #faketrailer will give you a taste of the goodness🙌
(Hopefully @MartineBotany will approve)

also, sorry to anyone and probably everyone i follow who got a dose of daily #RayBanSunglasses bot spam from "me" for the last week. I *think* we've re-secured the perimeter 😎.

Honey possum + #Eucalytpus pollination. Wearable art performance by Grace Kocur and @SamiWright11 for our @BucknellU art+botany class. #bisonflowers #pollinators #sciart @annakkell

My child got sent to Zoom detention for not paying attention in Zoom 4th grade. Email said here’s the link to access the room to serve detention.

I swear I’m trying so hard to take this life seriously.

Few more look-ins on progress our art+botany students are making on their wearable #pollination syndromes. Just 1 week away from their performances! Alt text for IDs. @annakkell #bisonflowers

[Chris Martine | Plants are Cool, Too! @MartineBotany]

Our next art+botany class project will be creating plant/pollinator partnerships as wearable art. So today we practiced by building lilies onto gloves, masks, & party hats. #bisonflowers #sciart @annakkell

@DZizis incredibly gorgeous and magical 👀

Some microscope images from class today. Aren’t the colors so pretty?! #bisonflowers
