Latest Critterwatcher news

Post by nwscubamom »

Spring has sprung and the underwater world is waking up! Here's hoping you get out and get wet this month.

Critter of the Month
---------------------
REEF PNW Advanced Assessment Team member Georgia Arrow has written up our mystery critter for May. See if you can guess who it is and if you've ever seen one. Thanks again to AAT member Mark Dixon for managing this portion of the website!

Upwardly Mobile
------------------
Steve Rubin and Pete Naylor have nailed the Level 2 and 3 tests respectively and have submitted enough surveys to be O-FISH-ally advanced up a level! See their smiling mugs (well, grinning ear-to-ear in Steve's case) here:

Next Survey Day
------------------
Flip your calendar page to next month and mark Saturday, June 23rd at Keystone Jetty on Whidbey Island. Mild currents, BBQ and potluck, and hopefully good weather will combine to make this an excellent day to survey and rub fins with your fellow fish geeks! More info:

Edmonds Survey Dive Day Photos
----------------------------------
Fantastic turnout last month for our Survey Day at Edmonds Underwater Park! 32 people showed up, with 22 diving. Thanks to all who helped with food, grills, stoves, tents and hosting the event! Recap of the events and links to photos here:
