I dove in my first bull kelp forest this summer while doing @reefcheckfoundation trainings. Since then, I’ve dove in more kelp and I’m obsessed with it 🤩 Did you know that kelp has two life cycles?

I finally found my nudibranch white whale; the clown dorid! More specifically, a modest clown dorid. After a year of searching, I finally saw several of these dorids during the low tides last week. These guys were probably about 3 inches (7.6cm) long but can get up to ~6 inches (15 cm).

Itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot branched dendronotid on the dock today! This is my first time seeing one with this coloration. Typically the ones I find are brown and resemble the algae on the docks.

Tufted puffins in Cannon Beach and in the San Juan Islands. These guys have spent the last 8 months floating out at sea and have come back to nest. They dig burrows which can be up to 7 ft deep. It was awesome to see these little guys fly around and forage!

Stalked jellyfish They live similarly to the polyp phase of other jellyfish, attaching themselves to a surface and using their tentacles to catch plankton.

The Florida Keys are dying. NOAA spent 13 years developing a new recovery plan for the sanctuary. It wasn’t even some big radical proposal. It was watered down, keeping 95% of the park open to fishing, yet still a big step forward. DeSantis vetoed it anyway.

DeSantis rejects long-planned management proposal for a Florida Keys marine sanctuary
Gov. Ron DeSantis said the plan, which took more than a decade to hammer out, failed to pave the way for artificial reefs in state waters and stripped Florida of managing its own wildlife.

One of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken. Hermissenda crassicornis aka thick-horned or opalescent nudibranch.

The shag-rug nudibranch’s food of choice is anemones (pics 1 and 4 show this). Their mucus temporarily prevents the stinging cells of the anemone from discharging, allowing them to eat without getting stung.
