Nova either thinks she's a bottom feeder or decided to make her own foraging game. 😂

After some heavy consideration, she started trying the calanus. But she ate it by stirring up the food from the substrate with her fins, then grabbing it. Every few bites, she swam back up to get a gulp of air, then go back to foraging.

Extremely cute & she seems to be enjoying it!
