Wishing you all a most wonderful Christmas / Holidays. Thank you Francis and Aleah for a veritable FEAST! You have put so much work into the culinary creations.

Meanwhile, outside, gentoo penguins are basking in the low light. They seem content too.

About me

Growing up watching nature documentaries, I find myself now immersed in nature's splendor. As an ecologist I study how ecosystems function. Here I share with you my love of doing research in Antarctica - a place of sheer beauty

Not all of #Antarctica is covered in snow and ice. The western Antarctic Peninsula has seen nearly 90% of its glaciers retreat as a result of rapid warming. This retreat has exposed soils that are now subject to plant colonization.
