    [As a US naturalized citizen, ‘Travels with Charley’ is one of my favourite travel/Americana books (just behind Least Heat Moon’s ‘Blue Highways’), storytelling supreme, especially with Steinbeck’s personal situation at the time; this building on that exploration and observation - including ‘Log from the Sea of Cortez’ - is truly a joy to see]

    "There are about 1000 species of #Chiton worldwide, Australia has about 150 species and 90% of these are native to #Australia. Most species are quite small (between 2 and 5 cm long). The largest rarely exceed 30 cm. All chitons are marine living, in cold water and in the tropics, mostly in #intertidal or #subtidal zones." mesa.edu.au/molluscs/molluscs_

  6. That one time I caught an amphipod spying on me.

    Balls of whelk eggs are mini ecosystems. You can find all sorts living inside! I’ve found amphipods, porcelain crabs and brittle stars. Just remember to put things back where you found them.

  7. A pair of long-clawed porcelain crabs (Pisidia longicornis) showing us #couplesgoals. What a handsome couple! The male is the big one, the female the little one. The male has a bigger difference between his claw size than the female.
