Shrimp Collecting – September 2014
While collecting shrimp, lab members Andrea Suria, Joey Deoss, and David Lei were met with a curious young nature enthusiast, Lily Manwaring, who was eager to assist! This was a great teaching moment as Lily and her grandmother, Elaine Andrews, discovered the unexpected diversity of life living on the docks, including sponges, mussels, crabs, tunicates, and of course, shrimp.
