Please just bring me some warmer days for spring break. PLEASE. I need some time on a stream for my sanity.
Remember to take time away from social media and take care of yourselves!

At the southern terminus of the Appalachian Mountains flows streams rich in aquatic biodiversity. The Shoal Bass, Micropterus cataractae, is one such treasure.

Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass…and 17 other species of black bass?! 🤯
Yup! And almost all of them are of conservation concern within their native streams of the southeastern USA. #BlackBassDiversity #Fishsci

Thinking back to warmer days and sampling the upper Etowah River with my students this summer. Lots of stunners, including this Alabama Shiner (Cyprinella callistia) 🔥

Spontaneous trip to explore some new sampling areas close to campus. I may have found the cure for the lesson-planning blues.
