#WorldWetlandsDay is always a welcome reason to dig through old photos from my MSc in boreal Alberta while I reminisce about marsh trudges alongside @girls_can. Side note - Dr. Rooney makes a great follow for cool wetland science and advocacy.

That’s a wrap on week 1 of #electrofishing the St Mary’s River watershed. Water was low & daytime temperatures high, restricting when and where we could fish. Impressive to see Atlantic Salmon fry and parr tolerating daily water temp fluctuations of nearly 10°C in tributaries
A tale of two ways to #scicomm. I know, different audience/purpose and all, but which tweet had me click through to a legit cool paper a bit outside my expertise? nrcresearchpress.com/doi/abs… @TrevorABranch – at Halifax, Nova Scotia
Every office I’ve occupied inevitably develops a shelf of #fieldfinds - this one is just getting started.
Traveling to run a week of fieldwork that depends on local volunteers means I’m really struggling to fill the solo time after punching out.
#sciart of sorts - illustrations from a bygone commercial fishery distract me while I sort through stacks of inherited reports.
Post-nor’easter sky-grin over Halifax harbour, right before power was restored. That was quite the initiation to Maritime winter. #NSstorm
