Realized I never posted any of the photos I took while out on the island (plus a few extra)!

Here’s what you’re looking at:

The giant and cozy USFWS research vessel, the R/V Tiglax

Killer oysters at the Homer Brewery

Sunset on the Homer slough

A moody picture of the outhouse we spent way too much effort building...it’ll probably blow away this winter anyway

Holding a windblown tufted puffin chick

Tufted and horned puffin nesting habitat

Time lapse cameras pointed at common murre and black-legged kittiwake colonies

Our biologist lead servicing a time lapse camera
