Wildlife I have seen so far are a lot of small benthic organisms - gastropods (snails), bivalves (clams and mollusks), and polychaetes (worms) during our bottom organism sampling and sorting. Plus, I have seen a few walrus and seals (not sure of the species, they were swimming in leads. An arctic fox was seen from the bridge today with numerous seabirds during the seabird survey.I would love to see a polar bear, spectacled eider, and more walrus!
