After nearly six months with their collection databases taken off-line, the Burke Museum is finally bringing them back. In particular, I am celebrating the return of their Herbarium’s image collection.

Despite our recent wintry weather in the Pacific Northwest, spider season continues in Seattle and this one on my porch light is a champ. Stay warm!
The Burke Museum at the University of Washington has a great spider mythbusting page: https://www.burkemuseum.org/static/spidermyth/index.html

Did get to visit the #BurkeMuseum before falling ill and learned about the cat-like #nimravids that precede the #CatGap. They lived 35-23 mya--tens of millions of years before true cats evolved--and weighed in at a sizable 300 lbs.
They are different from true cats due their more primitive skulls, flat-footed walking styles, and single-chambered ear bones. Many species did have elongated canines, and probably filled an evolutionary niche that true cats stepped into as climates changed.
