Really love how this one came out! Was very fun to design a flying fish/shark inspired dragon 🐉🌊🐟
(not to mention dragons are my favourite!)
Parrotfish, a decidedly diurnal fish, gotta shut it all down, but they don't want predators to sniff em while they're snoozing. So what do they do? They cover themselves in a big ol' ball of snot so they're harder to sniff out.
P.S. I'm teaching a class starting April 30th about nocturnal animals, it's 4 weeks and just for fun and we're definitely going to talk about parrotfish snot bubbles, and bats who babysit for each other, and bats who have best friends, and how some fungi lasso nematodes and all sorts of stuff.

This school of scalloped hammerheads was not a sight we expected to see, but what a sight it was! Experts are actually unsure why scalloped hammerheads school, but some theorize they school this way as juveniles, and continue the behavior into young adulthood!
Last weekend I attended a fish-themed art market in Plymouth where I tested out some polymer clay stuff, it was a hit!
Keep your eyes peeled, I may make some more stuff like this for my shop!
