First we got off the bus then went over to the shore and dropped our bags off. Then we headed down to the water and began looking for animal. For example, green crabs, lobsters, seaweed ect. After we were done tidepooling we headed up to get lunch, we played a little bit of football then headed home. On the way home we stopped at Jhonsons ice cream and that was the end of the trip.

Water comes up high

Cyanobacteria

Covers all the rocks.

The water gets low

Then water comes up high

because of the moon.

WHERE is there the most variety, and WHY do you think this is?

I think the the most variety is in the red group. There is so much variety in the red group from the rocks to the water. I said the rocks because the rock appear black when their natural color isnt. THis is because of the cyanobacteria witch is a algy that makes the rocks appear black. Also because is is where most of the life is. For example, there are green crabs, lobsters, clams, snails, and way more.
