#octopus

I've spent a couple of hours this morning helping to ID the latest observations uploaded to #iNaturalistNZ. It's always interesting to see what species New Zealanders have been finding. While I can help to ID a lot of plants and insects, octopuses I cannot, so we'll wait for a marine expert on that one. Still, look at it! Baby octopus!

Paraledone octopus

Pareledone is a genus of octopus found only in Antarctic waters. These seafloor dwellers live in shallow water and as deep as 4,000 metres. Genetic analysis found that distinct populations from the Weddell, Amundsen and Ross seas interbred 125,000 years ago, showing that the West Antarctic ice sheet melted during the last #interglacial, a time with climate conditions much like today.

“Empathy. Identity with perspectives outside our own. The liberating, sympathetic vibrations of fellow-feeling. Only those incapable of empathy are truly caged.” ― Ray Nayler, The Mountain in the Sea

There doesn't seem to be much consistency about #HeatPump power estimates. We had several surveyors round, and there was almost a factor of two between the smallest and largest power estimates. We went for the largest, because having a bit too much power (and cycling more than would be ideal) is less bad than having too little power. We also felt that the installer we chose, #GoodEnergy, was thorough and professional. But not, I should add, cheap.

For smaller installations, #Octopus offers much better value than anyone else we found. If they'd been able to provide a system big enough for this old barn, we'd certainly have gone with them. They at least score honesty points for walking away from the sale rather than trying to palm us off with a system that couldn't have kept us warm.
