Happy #WorldSeagrassDay from an inquisitive visitor to our new #seagrassrestoration site #Gathaagudu #SharkBay #Amphibolis #GenerationRestoration 📷Rachel Austin

I had the most amazing 2 weeks in #Gathaagudu #SharkBay restoring 1ha of #seagrass
I got to transplant both #Posidonia and #Amphibolis spp and admire their stunning flowers and seedlings 🌱

Aren’t these restored rows super beautiful?? 🤩🥰

Another epic day of fieldwork, and there is nowhere else I would rather be #SharkBay #Gathaagudu

Our 2021 field season has begun and we are so happy to have our team back on the water and catching up with old friends 🐬🐬🐬 #SharkBay #Gathaagudu #dolphinresearch
