Lev and Sea have a chance to talk with Rita Steyn, a marine ecologist and science communicator newly in Florida by way of South Africa.  The conversation wanders from the change of seasons in North America and South Africa, the remarkable biodiversity and biogeography of the Cape Region, the recent shark attack off of Cape Cod, red tide along the coast of Florida, and the marvelous eyes of scallops.  Rita’s work can be found at scicommonground.com and @ritasteyn, where she shares her science writing and photography.
