Good morning everyone! This is my first post. I am moving onto a sailboat with my family. We are going to Central America. On this blog I am going to write about my trip and all the things I explore and find. Here is where I will share them with you.
Today I found a snake. I looked at it very carefully and then went online and looked it up. I discovered it was Southern Ringneck. It looks like this.
See the tiny crab.
Last week I went on a sailboat ride. It was a catamaran, that means it has two hulls. We stopped the boat in the middle of the ocean and jumped off into the water. Someone was watching out for sharks. He saw one and yelled," Get out of the water!" So we did.
I picked up some Seaweed and shook it, and out came a crab and a shrimp. This is called Sargassum. The crabs and baby shrimp attach to the seaweed and eat the algea that attach to it. They stay there until they are big enough to find food on their own.
sargassum, sargasso
any floating brown seaweed of the genus Sargassum, such as gulfweed, of warm seas, having ribbon-like fronds containing air sacs.
