MarineQuest: Fish and Wildlife Research Institute annual open house this Saturday
I’ll be heading up to St. Petersburg sometime tomorrow to the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute*. They are having their annual open house, called MarineQuest, and their should be a lot of events and activities for anyone interested in marine biology.
I also got my little Belkin TuneTalk working again, so I hope to record a little sound-seeing tour along the way to share later.

*What is now the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute used to be called the Florida Marine Research Institute when it was part of the state’s Department of Environmental Protection. But back in 1999, an amendment to the state’s constitution merged the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission, the Marine Fisheries Commission and other elements, forming the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission.
