It was a sunny but windy afternoon yesterday in the intertidal zone with D block. We saw a few things of note…
At least Ehsan & Ivan were taking note!
A dead California sea cucumber (Parastichopus californicus). Very curious about the circumstances surrounding its arrival in the intertidal zone.
And we saw lots of eggs – several yellow whelk egg capsules and green fish eggs wedged into a crack in the rock.
We also collected some hairy hermit crabs for Tom’s extended essay work on shell selection in hermit crabs.
