I’m going to start sharing pictures from my biologist adventures here… hopefully people don’t mind, but it’s so fun! This algae is one of the largest single-celled organisms in the world.  Each of those “orbs” is a single cell.  A SINGLE CELL!!!  And they’re about the size of shooter marbles. They feel surprisingly hard to the touch for algae- almost like glass.
