anudibranchmomDescription
This is the third of this undescribed species I've seen. Another yesterday https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/140220099 and then the first one a year ago. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/91369989 Yay that they do seem to be established. Hopefully will be described soon. @chilipossum was with me today and got to see it too.

startled by a passing car, then got hazed by some random person ("why aren't you wearing a collar, huh? get out of here!"). worst offense: casually digging a hole in the former general's yard.
