And it's a wrap... three days of solid marine science at #samss2022. So proud of my lab for their involvement, talks, posters and of course the gala dinner dancing and happy of our first in-person conference since 2019! Thank you to the organisers for a super conference.

Got to see a caracal up close today. It casually trotted by as I was photographing a car - what a treat.

The seagrass around Green Island is home to some amazing marine life, you can find sharks cruising around the meadows looking for a meal.

We had a super lab hike on #Stellenbosch #mountain this morning. I love this fun research group, who are game even very early in the morning. Thanks everyone - it was a great way to spend some time (even though the views weren’t their best).
