Polar plunge Polar bear Nora loves to dive, so care staff came up with a way to safely place a camera at the bottom of her pool to watch her underwater. Beary cool!

Waffling between talking about comfort food or screaming the sky is falling, pivoting to reading a book.

We’re otterly excited to introduce you to Nova, a seven-year-old southern sea otter who has been participating in Sea Otter Surrogacy behind the scenes of the Aquarium since last autumn.

Too Cute Tuesday!

Anyone besides me forget about Daylight Savings Time ?

What is your current book read?

The countdown is on! 25 days until April Fools but it’s also release day for Saving the Rancher. What happens when a grumpy rancher finds his life taken over with duck derbies and a hardworking blonde marketing executive?

I recommend turning on the sound to hear the adorable munching noises as I kick off Too Cute Tuesday.

I love receiving book mail! It’s probably my favorite type of package. Looking forward to reading this!

Picking someone up at the airport at 3 AM because their flight was delayed by 6 1/2 hours is now on my list of things that only hopefully happens once in a lifetime.
