just got back from a semester of field school on the Vancouver Island at the Bamfield marine station. frigging amazing, but text is boring. picture time!
For a 3.5 months, this was my playground ![]() some doodle in class. we carve bullkelp heads ![]() hydroids are a lot cooler than most people give them credit for ![]() anemones kick A$$ around here ![]() fish up the hoohaw ![]() my dive buddy patrick ![]() we care about animals round here. we revived this humboldt squid that washed ashore. ![]() field trips have their own inherent hazards ![]() grunt sculpin hiding in a moonsnail shell. how cute is this?! ![]() the eye of a giant pacific octopus. ![]() my study animal Oregonia gracilis. he's decorated himself with bits of flagging tape. ![]() a sunset boat ride is a sweet way to end a day. ![]() |

Cool. I too have spent some time in Bamfield. Beautiful area! Is the road to Alberni any better yet? It used to be not much more than a wagon trail. Access by boat was about the only way to get in.

Glad you're back safe & sound Justin.
Just showed Irene your pics & she couldn't stop going "Wow. Cool. Wow." I loved our field trip to Bamfield back in my UBC days. Anthony
