Since I was visiting Yellowstone at the very front edge of spring, I thought maybe I’d get some photos of bison in the snow. I did get a couple shots, but nothing fantastic (and technically some of these are from outside the park, but close…

Since I shared more Stubby Squids, let’s look at some more Pacific Red Octos (Octopus rubescens), including a quick video taken by Randy Williams from Washington Scuba Alliance after our trash cleanup dive (I’m the one holding the octo). It was a good thing I…
While we’re on the subject of stops along the drives to/from Monterey, Here’s a quick little video of a spot I found when I drove through Brookings, Oregon last year as I headed south. When I stopped last year, it was raining much harder and…
On our drive down to Monterey, Ashley mentioned that she and Jake had done a dive on the Smith River outside of Crescent City, CA as a spot called the Slant River Bridge. We thought about trying to stop and hit the dive on the…
And now for some videos… The first video is from the encounter with the sea otter mom and her baby that I got to watch for a while at the Breakwater jetty, it was a bit rainy and windy, but I did the best I…
Well… I figured this was well worth sharing quickly… Hopefully we get some more sea otter encounters, but since I’m figuring it isn’t going to be super common, this was quite a treat…
Ok – it might take me a little while to start getting a collection of photos to share from the diving in Monterey (so far only 3 dives in so far), but to get everyone started… and maybe I’ll just do a handful of these…
On a recent dive, we found a forest of Sea Whips. These are corals that grow in a single long stalk and the coral polyps radiate out to the sides. Before this dive, I’d seen a couple but this area had them as far as…
I’ve shared some photos of Hooded Nudibranchs before, and I’m sure if you’ve watched my dive compilation videos you’ve seen clips of other nudibranchs… but Hooded Nudibranchs are really unique. I mean really unique – and honestly a bit weird. Let’s start with the obvious…
I’ve had a few new octopus encounters since I came back up to the PNW. I think all of these are GPOs (the second one definitely is as it was a quite massive octo, but there is a possibility that the other two might be…
Yesterday I went back to a dive site I’ve visited a bunch of times in West Seattle with a good friend, Deana. As we were about to start our dive, a couple other divers asked us for some directions to a part of the site…
Well, I’m getting this video finished up just in time to keep the schedule of sharing a video the first Sunday of each month… this round is another set of timelapse highlights from travels in Washington, California, and Utah. If you’re interested, check out some…
Some fiddler crabs doing what fiddler crabs do… Filmed 2021.05.22 at Wormsloe in Savannah, GA.
My friend, Nick, likes to invent games and organize sporting events. A recent creation was to devise a way to be able to play Ultimate Frisbee after dark (since we’re into autumn here and the evenings are getting darker earlier and earlier every day). Since…
