Hi Friends!
This Sunday is the 4th International Polychaete Day - started originally to celebrate Kristian Fauchald and the animals he loved.
Tag your posts with #PolychaeteDay
We will celebrate at the Smithsonian Natural History with 3 stations in the Ocean Hall manned by 10 experts. We will be talking with visitors about our collection, showing live polychaetes, and talking about research on Tomopteris at the Museum. We would love to hear about your plans so we can help promote them.
Have fun and share with the world all the wonderful polychaetes out there!
Cheers,
Karen
