Clockwise from top left: Cory Johnson, SBB student from North Carolina, tidepooling on Bishops Beach in the rain. Following the SBB van back from a field trip to the Alaska Marine Science Symposium (AMSS) in Anchorage, AK somewhere along the Seward Highway past the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. Myself looking out at Kachemak Bay during a rainy tidepooling session with friends.
The above, which means 'thank you my friend' in the traditional Dena'ina language, reflects the SBB appreciation for our tour of the Kahtnuht'ana Dehdldiht Campus (also known as the Kenai River People's Learning Place). From left to right is Olivia Holdaway from North Carolina, myself, and Megan Bell from Texas sitting on a whale tail sculpture at the entrance. Photo by Dr. Debbie Tobin.

Parts of a moose calf's skull, found scattered in a field within Homer, overgrown with mosses of various kinds during a USF&W telemetry training lab. Beautiful, right?
