Heading into the mudflats
Today was one of the days that I look forward to every year – Mudflat Monday! Two of the three classes braved the challenging ecosystem that is the mudflats today (the third class went last Thursday, so actually they were the first class!).
Slogging through the mudflats
We found clams, worms and crabs…

Lugworm, Abarenicola pacifica
Inaki and a graceful rock crab, Metacarcinus gracilis
We really got our gumboots and hands dirty today! This truly is science you can sink your boots into!
