Yesterday we joined @ShakeOutBC . We love working on beautiful Vancouver Island, but it comes with the hazard of living in the most seismically active area of Canada! Every year the biggest worldwide earthquake drill helps to prepare us for earthquakes and tsunamis.

This week we helped out with #fcbioblitz. We had a blast working with @HakaiInstitute to collect subtidal samples & identify invertebrates. The organisms we found will be shared on iNaturalist & the data will be used as a baseline to study changes in the False Creek ecosystem.

Larva, metatrochophore stage, of a Capitella sp., polychaete worm The shiny marbles inside the gut are lipid droplets: this larva is likely non-feeding (lecithotrophic). #Plankton Phase contrast #Microscopy #PolychaeteSciFiles

While some of us wish this was an #aprilfools story, slingshot spiders are very much real! These astonishing #arachnids are able to catapult themselves and their webs with an acceleration rate of > 1,000 meters per second! #spider #invertebratesforthewin ow.ly/WKKB30ohtOc
