Keystone Jetty, May 27, 2023 dive.
Baby Puget Sound King crabs appeared in numbers. I found eleven juveniles!
I added little story about how the scientific name for this crab got recently changed... And I used photo I took at Keystone back in February 2015,
when we found three adults here, a rare sight indeed.

Keystone Jetty, Memorial Day, May 29,2029 dive.
Plenty of divers today.
Painted anemone munching on Buffalo sculpin.
Many years ago, I contacted an expert on anemones, Daphne G. Fautin, Professor Ecology and Evolutionary Biology University of Kansas. She was kind enough to answer many of my question about anemones. One of my inquires was about anemone eating big critter as a fish. I included portion of her answer on this posting...

Langley Harbor, June 16, 2023
Because of extracted tooth, I could not participate in the planned sea star collection. All I could do was to look on while my friend Ken did the underwater work. I wish the ongoing research into the Sea Star Wasting Disease will shed more light onto the issue...

Jan, I just want to say that I have always enjoyed your posts!! Your creativity and talent is amazing! I appreciate your posts even more now that I moved across the country and no longer dive in the PNW. Thank you! I can dive vicariously through you.
