Meet the Guineafowl puffer
(Arothron meleagris)!
This fish feeds mainly on the tips of branching corals.
It gets round not by eating but to avoid being eaten, swallowing water to dissuade predators from attempting such a big bite.
If it’s late to inflate, this fish also has bacteria in its body that can be toxic.

This week in 1981, the AC/DC LP “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)” debuted on the UK Albums Chart at #3 (December 5)
AC/DC’s eighth studio album was the follow-up to the massively successful “Back in Black” LP, so the pressure was on.
And while it wasn’t as huge as “Back in Black” it was still a major success.
“For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)” would become AC/DC's first and only #1 album in the US until the release of “Black Ice” in October 2008.
It remained in the #1 spot on the US Billboard 200 for three weeks.
(FYI - “Back in Black” was the best-selling album that never reached the top spot in the US)
It also went Top 5 in the UK, Australia, Canada, Germany and Italy, and Top 10 in New Zealand, Sweden, Switzerland, Norway and Austria.
In their original 1981 review, Rolling Stone magazine called “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)” AC/DC’s best album to date…
To finish, I’ll quote Dewey Finn (Jack Black) from the movie School of Rock, when he says to the class: "In the words of AC/DC: We roll tonight ... to the guitar bite ... and for those about to rock ... I salute you".

Gold Ivy Wreath
4th–3rd century BC
This Hellenistic funerary wreath, crafted in gold alloy, is formed from delicate ivy leaves and slender tendrils arranged in a naturalistic circlet. Each leaf is carefully shaped and chased to show its veins, giving the piece an almost living appearance despite its ancient age.
Ivy was sacred to the God Dionysos, symbolizing vitality, protection, and the endurance of life beyond death. Such wreaths were worn by elite Hellenic tribes, such as the #Macedonians, in ritual, ceremony, and burial, marking both status and belief.
#Macedonia, #Greece.
