Mangroves

For another one of Melissa's field trips we had the chance to go an visit a few mangroves on the island. This ended up being one of the more lame field trips this semester but we still saw some interesting things.

This is Matt in action:

Melissa was very dedicated to this spot. She stayed here for at least 5 minutes diligently looking for... something... :

We found a nice little hermit crab:
Ok, ok, this wasn't in the mangroves but we like this guys, and this guy was absolutely huge:

    The grow groves of men there?? How strange... You make my biology degree from BYU provo look pretty lame. Definitely went to the wrong school for my degree.

    Ok, yeah, both of you are right. But Dave, I didn't get to make cool teeth models (which I'm sure now you get too much of), and Aubree, it wasn't that bad...plus we got to see some homeless people habitats...that was pretty sweet! :)
