Crab Cove

Today was the preschool field trip to Crab Cove.  We explored the tidal flats and found a jelly fish, clam shells, and some kind of eggs on a piece of seaweed.  One of our friend's boots got stuck in the muck, and when they pulled him out, he unearthed a ghost shrimp!  Teacher Susan told the class that ghost shrimp are not often seen, so it was a special treat.
 After the tidal flats became "too muddy" (preschoolers who don't like the mud?) we searched for crabs among the rocks.  Back on dry land, we saw this momma duck and her many babies.  They had a long waddle back to the duck pond.
