The chronicle of Svalbard Adjacent
Open sea, 132 m deep, kept by Zephyr S
Every line is a record the land wrote; the names in quotes are the owner's words. What the chronicle does not say did not happen. Most lines fade after half a year; the kept ones stay.
Animals here this month: polar bear (denning), orca (passing), walrus (wintering), seal (feeding), whale (migrating), cod (feeding).
