hello all this will be my last post for Bamfield.

I am sad to be leaving so many friends and such a beautiful place.

this week I did some Gyotaku printing and some forest exploration I also worked with microscope to explore the microscopic world of plankton.

Gyotaku of a Rock fish

Rhizome of a Licorice fern (Polypodium glycyrrhiza)

Diatoms under microscope ( fun fact 50% of the earth oxygen comes from phytoplankton)

Hello all !

Bamfield is still treating me with amazing weather. This week I went prawn fishing for the first time and i got bitten by small octopus. (No neurotoxins injected).

I was also able to walk the first 10 kilometers of the wets coast trail. I posted a new page called Bamfield spirit of ownership.

Other wise I have been creating bilingual resources for the french groups that are coming next week.

See ya next week !

Octopus! this little bugger took a bite at me….

Steamed prawns!! Those a are pacific spotted prawns!

Special thanks to my friend Tao who took me prawn fishing and shared the catch with me.

Hello All,

For my CFE I am fortunate enough to be a in Bamfield at the science center.
Bamfield is one of the ends of the earth. A dusty gravel road that ends in the pacific. It is protected from time and first world problems well almost.
I will try in my next posts to paint to you Bamfield what it fells like to be here but to be honest you need to experience it for your self.

There will be more post on bamfield here on the wall but if you are curious you can also visit the bamfield tab!!!

Thank you for reading
