06.02.2020 Dive#93 & 93

Did 2 dives today. Saw LeeAnn in the parking lot.
First was an urchin dive. Got caught in abandoned fishing line AGAIN!
Saw a little Red Octopus in 9' on the way in. Very cute!
Second dive was with Dannie. We were looking for new little critters to photograph and I was looking for signs of sea star wasting disease.
We saved some air to look in the shallows for more octopuses. Saw a baby cabezon and a Urechis hiding in the witch's hair seaweed.
Got plenty of fishing line on both dives.
The sea lions have moved way into the beach during the SIP. The big males are pretty territorial, but I'm going to miss them when they leave for the Channel Islands soon.
