The very excited blonde lady owns the resort where this is taken. She’s super excited because this is the closest they’ve ever come in before. Everyone else is less excited because this was taken crack of dawn; when blonde lady realized how close the whales were coming, she ran around waking everybody up to see it.

this is so magical, it looks like little plants begin to grow and thrive at the bottom

this is a very common thing for mosses!! they’ve made themselves so resistant to water loss that they can squeeze out all intercellular water in the dry season, hang out like that for months or however long it takes for water to come back to their environment, and then ‘wake up’ when they can replenish their cells and resume photosynthesis!! a fun thing to try is to dry out a moss and then drip water on it and watch it come back to life!!
