Books to film π=ποΈ The Invisible Man (1897) by H.G. Wells was adapted to film in 1933 with many sequels & remakes/spinoffs such as Invisible Woman, Hollow Man & the 2022 Invisible Man. In the book Griffin is a megalomaniac bent on power whereas in the films he's insane. ππ£π€ #filmsky #booksky

Loved both the book and the movie. I enjoyed the 1933 b/w film.

Three-month-old Kipekee is our youngest orphan and newest foster addition. Rescued in June with sunken cheeks and no fat reserves after surviving days without milk or protection. With patience and plenty of milk, she's regaining strength. She's enjoying life at the Nursery where she's adored.

I am waiting just a bit before I adopt Kipekee. I lost two this year and I am being a bit cautious.π She looks so loved by the other orphans and well taken care of. Even as babies they surround her and keep her safe. Not stepping on her as she plays in the mud. What a joy to see her filling out. πβ£οΈπ

Itβs heating up here in Tsavo, which means Mr Bean has entered a phase of rest and relaxation. He finds an inviting patch of shade, squeezes himself into position, and lazes the day away. Keeper Peter is kind enough to hand-deliver Beanβs bowl of milk, so as to not interrupt his zen.
Paula (@totallypaula.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh my gosh can Mr Bean be any cuter. He is so big now and graduated from a bottle to a bowl. I love how they like kneeling down on their knees to eat. He is so pampered and spoiled. Keeper Peter does such a great job at Kaluku. Thank you for this video, it made my Monday!! πβ£οΈπ

Ok just to set expectations, be prepared for a smudge.𫨠It should improve down the line. Honestly I should be using acrylics( which I have) because while water colors look easy to use, they aren't. But I do love the effect of watercolors. π€

They will send her to a reintegration unit like they have other rescued giraffes in the past. It's a slow process reintroducing the orphans back into the wild, but it has happened in the past.
