Back after a brief pause. Thank you for sticking with me.
A breath between worlds...
Green sea turtles spend most of their lives underwater, surfacing only briefly to breathe before slipping back into the depths.

I'm excited to launch Nexus, a new module in #gaiaeco. Nexus visualises 20M relationships among species.
We built Nexus into browse biotic interactions in a user friendly way.

🐢 Fun Fact Friday: Green sea turtles help fight climate change!
By grazing seagrass, they keep it healthy & trap carbon. 🌱
Conservation works: they’re no longer endangered in many regions! 🌊
What’s your favorite ocean creature? 🐠

Cut to white watercolour illustration of the Green sea turtle, pacing right with front flippers outstretched and face in profile.
Here's another of the #naturalhistoryillustrations I did of #Montserrat wildlife. This is the #Greenseaturtle, #Cheloniamydas.
The pattern of the shell is tough to try and capture. Lots of layers of paint, and treating each scute individually.

It’s February! If you practice linear time, and the Jan 1 start didn’t work for you, today, is the last full moon. Also, these turtles are no longer on the endangered species list. #winning #HappyLunarNewYear almost

Larus, the #seagull makes sure that he visits Che, the #greenseaturtle on his way home. They spend lots of time together laughing & telling jokes.
Stay the course. Don’t give up #hope.

Felt bad about making the #turtle in my last post look dumb, so here’s one looking as graceful as we all want to believe they always are🤣
I’m probably gonna get back to Aliens next if that’s cool by you?

Is this turtle stuck?🤣
And for the record, still, years after the world decided it wanted vertical videos, I still hate it. This clip, and practically every other one I’ve ever made, looks better horizontally.

Coral City Green Sea Turtle 🥷🐢🌇(read TMNT style) #greenseaturtle #seaturtle #seaturtlesofcoralcity #chelonia #tmnt #coral #coralhead #coralcitycamera #miami #portmiami #biscaynebay #coralcity
One of the more interesting behaviors I’ve seen. Rather than just scratching for tactile sensation, I believe these green sea turtles are using the mucus from the coral as a barrier against growth

Sneak peek at our new honu (sea turtle) reusable bags! Sorry for the wrinkles--we had just got it unpacked, shaken out, and hung on our display rack at our Kaloko-Honokōhau NHP visitor center park store! 😍

A green sea turtle swims above coral-encrusted wreckage at the SS Sapona shipwreck site in Bimini, Bahamas. The scene is rich with underwater textures, rusted metal, and marine life.

Green Sea Turtles are an icon of the Hawaiian Islands. Aaaaand since I'm from Dante's Arizona Inferno, I needed to take in as much of the local marinelife as possible! 🤙💚🤙💚

Large sea turtle in very shallow water - just beyond her are two wading snorkelers who are looking in the opposite direction and don't see the turtle.
Turtle practical jokes... 🦑
