I’m Detroit, Michigan for the 3rd Binational Great Lakes Aquatic Invasive Species Forum and needed to share pictures of this amazing carousel I spotted along the Detroit Riverwalk! 🐟

Also these bonus goody boxes provided by the GLFC were top notch! (Popcorn was also included but I ate it during the screening 😉 🎥 🍿)

Happy Sunday! For this week’s #SundayFishSketch theme of harvest I decided to go with a fish that reminds me of the harvest season, the Pumpkinseed! 🎃 🐟

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!

Oh how I missed the Mighty Mississippi. Gona soak up every bit of it while working remotely from St. Paul this week 💙

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 :)

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.

I’m wayyy late on my #SundayFishSketch, but I couldn’t pass up the theme of “fish I want to catch” with this very quick sketch of a northern snakehead.

Just a video of some Redlip Shiners spawning on a Bluehead Chub mound to start your Monday off right :)

Had a blast at the 2025 Wisconsin Lakes and Rivers Convention last week!

Aside from the talks and other fun activities I was also delighted to have access to a compost bin and be in a large conference space where zero waste principles were emphasized.

Way to lead by example Wisconsin!
