View from my lunch meeting

The kelp forest exhibit says something like ‘you always know it’s a rockfish when it’s just laying there not moving’

Same

Birds before work (I went through a secret door to find some cormorants)

My wife is in town (very rare!) so we took a nice evening stroll from the aquarium to the Sandbar

Bloody-belly comb jelly. Can’t believe I get to see this at work

Black necked stilts at our onsite aviary (which rehabilitates and releases injured birds, and keeps those who can’t be released)

@skinnylatte

Oh, I've gotta visit this some day…

amends bucket list accordingly

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

@amin lemme know! We can go whale watching

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

GIANT sea bass

[ab@androiddev.social]

@skinnylatte WOAH!! Stop posting. I can't afford a trip there at the moment.

[ramiro@xoxo.zone]

@skinnylatte I miss this so much, I definitely need to plan a trip in when it gets a little warmer

[ramiro@xoxo.zone]

@skinnylatte ooh actually, could you be my person on the inside? I love visiting when there's a giant sunfish / mola mola on display but I know they have difficulty keeping them too long because of how fast they grow

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

@ramiro ooh I will ask someone

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

@ramiro lemme know!!

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

@ab hehe lmk if you ever do visit

[josh0@babka.social]

@skinnylatte the photo really does not convey how ridiculously big they are.
