My 10th #DarwinDay poster, and the 1st I've designed as an "ordinary" volunteer, now that Maria Angela Fatta, a strong atheist feminist and co-founder of Non Una Di Meno Palermo, has finally accepted the mantle as the new chair of our @uaar chapter in Palermo

Alcuni momenti della serata di ieri che abbiamo organizzato per celebrare il #DarwinDay con Furio Honsell e Paolo Attivissimo (@ildisinformatico).

I relatori, con grande humour e capacità di attirare l'attenzione, hanno parlato di curiosità, di domande non banali da porsi, di evoluzione delle bufale e della necessità di indignarsi, ma solo a fronte di motivi validi e documentati.

Grazie al CICAP e al gruppo consiliare regionale misto per l'aiuto nell'organizzazione.

Continuing the celebration of Darwin Day with a short clip from our podchat with his descendant Emma Darwin, on writing 'This is Not a Book about Charles Darwin'...

| Darwin kann man zwei Mal feiern

Zum gestrigen 216. Geburtstag ordnete der Fabiologe Fabian Deister die Arbeit Charles Darwins ein und erklärt uns im Blog, warum man auch von der Evolutionsbiologie statt von der Evolutionstheorie sprechen kann.

February 12th is #DarwinDay , and while Darwin himself rarely drew, his children doodled plenty - including on the backs of his manuscript pages!

Five Darwin’s finches were on display at Naturalis for a short period of time a while. A must see for me.

I’m happy to share the photo I took to celebrate #DarwinDay #science #nature #birds #naturalscience

Darwin collected 31 of these birds and gave these to the museum of the Zoological Society of London. When that museum closed, 5 of the Darwin finches were sold to Naturalis.

Ein langer Tag geht zu Ende - und wie jedes Jahr begehe ich am 12. Februar den #DarwinDay. Zu Charles #Darwin kursieren Vorurteile, v.a. unter Religiösen. Doch er hatte seinen einzigen Abschluss in anglikanischer #Theologie, sollte Pfarrer werden & dachte auch über die #Evolution der Religion nach. In seinem letzten Lebensjahr begeisterte er sich für ein Buch eines irischen Kollegen, das die Vereinbarkeit von Religion und Wissenschaft betonte. Happy Birthday, Charles! https://www.herder.de/theologie-pastoral/shop/p2/46233-evolution-und-gottesfrage-ebook-epub/

What is evolution and how does it work?

Ay, que hoy es el #DarwinDay. Felicidades a todos los creacionistas que mantenéis vuestra fe a pesar de que todo demuestra que estáis equivocados. Feliz cumple, don Charles.

Por cierto, este año el Proyecto #DarwinOnline de la NUS (Universidad Nacional de Singapur) ha presentado la mayor colección de caricaturas de Darwin y la evolución del mundo. Merece la pena pasarse por ella, aunque no he encontrado la de la etiqueta de Anís del Mono.

I wish I knew as much of the natural science of my time as Darwin knew in his time.

Happy #DarwinDay

Happy #DarwinDay everyone!

This image of Charles is from a work in progress, trying to make the point that comic panels are like members of an ecosystem. Separate, and yet connected.

Happy birthday to Charles Darwin (1809-1882)! Today is Darwin Day to celebrate his birthday, science and evolution.

“The inhabitants believe that these animals are absolutely deaf; certainly they do not overhear a person walking closely behind them. I was always amused, when overtaking one of these great monsters as it was quietly pacing along, to see how suddenly, the instant I passed, it …
