  3. "I wanted to believe that I would see him again before he died, but I knew that probably wasn’t going to happen, and this made the solitary ride down in the elevator a sad and singular journey. You get what you get, I told myself. I had got so much. I had not got enough." —Ann Patchett for The New Yorker

  5. The Richwhite & Thackwray influencer roadshow is back in the news, because their proposed Queenstown glow worm cave tourist attraction has been turned down by the Council.

    The rejection is based around the subdivision of the land concerned, which I believe is owned by a third party. It sits just outside QT, on your left as you head towards Coronet Peak.

    You have to question the claim that the rich kids will run "a sustainable glowworm experience." If you're ripping glow worms out of their natural habitat to stock your tourist attraction, the word "sustainable" is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

  10. For the #SciArtSeptember prompt “underworld” here are some bioluminescent troglofauna or cave dwellers I travelled to see, in the glowworm cave of Waitomo.

    On the North Island of New Zealand (that is, Aotearoa) there are caves near Waitomo with large populations of Arachnocampa luminosa, a glowworm (insect larvae and adult larviform females that glow through bioluminescence) native to the country.

  18. A small breeding population of glow worms has been discovered at Sherwood Heath in Nottingham. It'll take two years to see how successful they've been, but given the overall decline in the species in the UK, this is very exciting.

  20. Las 'estrellas' atrapadas en las cuevas de Waitomo

    Las cuevas de Waitomo, en Nueva Zelanda, son conocidas porque en su interior habitan unas extrañas criaturas, los glowworms (gusanos luminosos), que producen luz para atraer a sus presas y así poder alimentarse.

    Estos puntos luminosos hacen que el techo de la cueva parezca un cielo estrellado. Es un espectáculo único y que merece la pena conocer.
