There is pleasure in the pathless woods,
there is rapture on the lonely shore,
there is society, where none intrudes,
by the deep sea, and music in its roar;
I love not man the less, but Nature more.

Rattails (aka grenadiers) are common and curious deep-sea denizens that will investigate any disturbance on or around the seafloor—which means they sometimes photobomb our colleagues at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
Mystic Aquarium is also letting its animals visit each other during this time of great boredom. Get you a partner who looks at you like this sea lion looks at this tegu.
Male high white western blue-tongued skink, USCBB by David Sutton of DMS Propagations. One of Troy’s all-time favorites, happy to be able to make that dream come true.
