Today's story is from someone who gets to live out basically every kid's dream of being a marine biologist on a beautiful tropical reef. Meg Malone studies fish behavior on a reef that's located off the shore of Moku o Lo'e, Coconut Island, which is famous in part for being the backdrop for the 1960's show 'Gilligans Island,' but today is better known as the site of the Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology. In this episode she shares her day in the life of a marine biologist, recording and studying how fishes* interact with with their environment and one another. Fish do a lot of stuff in a day! Meg's helping us learn what all they're up to.

*Fun fact, if you've got two fish of the same species, they're referred to as fish (e.g. 'there are two clownfish in our fish tank), but if you've got multiple different species of fish, you refer to them as 'fishes' (e.g. 'there are two clownfish and three other fishes in our fish tank).
