An interesting little mantid-fly I spotted on a walk.
A mantid fly isn't a mantis, but it is an example of convergent evolution. They are lacewings that developed raptor claws like a mantis and some have even adopted the bodyshape and coloration of a wasp (wasp-mimic). Wild little insect.
@Quip really nice image, I'd love to find and photograph one myself one day, however they are very rare and not very diverse in my area. Hope you don't mind I reposted this with a link to your post, couldn’t figure out how to crosspost and still get a thumbnail on kbin unfortunately.
What's currently the distinction between these? I created a magazine and wanted to add a welcome sticky (Reddit style) but that ended up on the microblog. But you can't sticky those for some reason. But I also can't find how to create a thread with just text from the drop down menu. Can someone explain the differences and why they are there?
Thx.
Hallo miteinander, eigentlich sollte es ja gut funktionieren im Fediverse auf andere instances zuzugreifen. Ich hab einfach keine lust mehr auf Reddit und deshalb würde ich lieber hier unterwegs sein. Ich habe mir kbin.social als Startpunkt ausgesucht weil ich gutes gehört habe aber irgendwie schaffe ich es nicht wirklich auf andere Communities zuzugreifen. Ich habe jetzt de_EDV rausgesucht um zu testen ob ich überhaupt mit anderen interagieren kann. Würde es sich lohnen mir lieber einen feddit.de Account zu machen ind Ann man diesen Post überhaupt sehen?

Super, danke für die Antwort. Deine Antwort kam jetzt zwar mit 22 Stunden Verspätung bei mir an aber ich schätze das liegt an der early beta von kbin und nicht am fediverse allgemein.
“Honeybees are not in decline; they are probably the most numerous bee on the planet,” says Andrew Whitehouse from insect conservation charity Buglife. While the UN’s Food and Agricultural Organization reports there are more than 90m honeybee hives globally, many rarer native pollinators are in increasingly precarious positions.
@john_fisherman that's why protection of of wild bees is extremely important. Best done by creating habitats for them as well as providing native flowering plants. Only one is not enough.
