Last night I joined the Great Lakes Young Professionals Network for a virtual screening of The Fish Thief (youtu.be/_3zJyKfi4hU?...).
The film is very well done and highlights the history behind the Great Lakes sea lamprey invasion and how the Great Lakes Fishery Commission came to be!

It was wonderful to get together with UMN Water Resources Science grad students and alumni this past Thursday in St. Paul, MN. Such good people passionate about various dimensions of water and the environment. 💧The WRS branded fleeces were icing on the cake!

Wanted to paint a catfish for this weeks #SundayFishSketch. It definitely did not come out anatomically correct and I’m not sure what species I was aiming for, but I still like it :)

Happy Pride! The diversity of life, in all its forms, is pretty rad!
(Side note: there's not a whole lot of purple fish, so the pink/silver goldeye is the best I got)

Didn’t have time for a #SundayFishSketch this week because I was at the 2025 NANFA convention. But I did crochet this American Eel for the convention auction.
