Haven't posted on my scuba blog in ages, but i guess here goes? The latest underwater adventures in the cold nordic waters :) 🤿🦑 swedishdiving.blogspot.com/2024/06/jord...
A Swedish diver's adventures in the Nordic waters, done in a way similar to a divers log book
This is sad 😢 Wonder what could be done to prevent at least a portion of this
Would that there was a way to track, or at least take care of these nets 😢
Scientists raise the alarm: Too many harbour porpoises dying in nets. In Danish coastal waters over 900 die each year vs a 24 death limit that would keep Belt Sea population stable. In 2012 & 2016, there were around 40.000 individuals, by 2022, only 14.000 left. 🧪🦑🌎 tech.au.dk/en/about-the...
Finally broke my long surface interval from diving this weekend, while waters were cold, it was so nice to be back in business! Got some photos too, but i forgot to turn off the camera between the dives, so it ran out of battery on the second dive, when all the nicer things showed up 🤪 🦑🤿
Another Wednesday, another reason to be pink. This is a Bryer's Nut crab (Ebalia tumefacta), a tiny species of crab that can be found on sandy, rocky and gravel seafloors. this particular individual was seen during Diversnight in Lysekil 2023 (no clue how i even spotted it) 🦑🤿📷🦀
This is the ideal crustacean body. You may not like it, but this is what peak crustacean shape looks like :)
I am not surprised honestly, I too would be a bit miffed if someone came up and randomly brushed me with a kitchen brush 🤣 All hail the mighty KBOS🙌
that is indeed very smol :O
On Wednesday we wear pink! Though the name of the nudibranch is Violet sea slug (Edmundsella pedata), i'd say this one from Väderöarna archipelago is of a sufficiently pinkish colouration, right? 🤿🦑 #Nudibranch Photo date: 2021 07 24 Camera: Olympus TG-5
