Today was pretty relaxed. Woke up at 6 for a different reason today, the low tide happened at 530 so Cat and I went for an observation period early instead of late so we could work on our report for our project. After our observation period, we walked towards the resort and I found another sea star that was drying up on a rock. I picked it up and gently threw it into the ocean since I caught flak for tossing the last one I found. A little down the beach, there were a ton of young seagulls gathered together (refer to picture). They were standing there, silent and menacing. It was weird so we just walked past. We went back to the station and relaxed until our next observation period at high tide. After that and lunch, Cat and I finished up our report and got our presentation all ready to go. We had a lot of time until dinner so I went for a walk because why not. On my walk I saw a baby black tip reef shark really close to the shore. It was really young, less than 2 months old. He was swimming super close to the shore line and he kept rolling with the waves as they crashed onto the shore. It was pretty fun watching him go. Before dinner, everybody gathered together for photos. We took a lot of photos, I have selected just a few of them below. The sunset was a bust since it has been super cloudy all day. Dinner was rice and curry and I decided now was the time to eat to gain real weight. I had three plates and ate until my stomach hurt, then I had desert. The desert was amazing so I kept shoving it down. I powered through the best kind of pain until the food was all gone. I haven't hurt this way in a long time but I don't regret any of it.

About MeI am the guy whose name is on the top there. I am a student who graduated with a BA from USU this year and finally gave in to Dr. Atwood's pestering to go on her Heron Island Class for coral reefs. People often call me really sassy and unhappy. What they don't know is that my resting face is angry, but I am usually pretty happy. ArchivesCategories |
