I went kayaking with Matt,
Amanda, Noah and Lindsey at Stonewall Pond.
We kayaked under the bridge and as soon as we got out, we saw a huge
horseshoe crab. I picked it up and it
was super heavy!!

Then we kayaked across the pond and stopped at
another little beach. I caught three
baby fish only about 3 inches long. They
were probably bass. While I was walking in the water, I noticed a
small horseshoe crab that was still clear. It could fit on the palm of my
hand. I also found a molted horseshoe
crab shell.
At the very end of the
trip, I noticed a Brittle starfish at the boat launch. We haven't seen one for two years!
I really enjoyed being a tour guide. Here's a picture of me and my youngest student.

Grey,
Your kayaking trip looked like it was fun and informative. I liked seeing the difference in size between the baby horseshoe crab and the big one you found. I like the way you included links to additional information about the living things you discovered. The brittle starfish looked very interesting, too.
