Tide Pools

Hi David! A week ago, we went to Cabrillo National Monument again, this time to check out the tide pools. Tide pools are little pools of water left behind when the tide goes out. You can only see them a certain times of the day.


Here is a tide pool left behind in a rock.

And another one.

The waves are crashing over the rocks.

A wall of rock. When the tide is in, the water comes up to the top of the rock shelves.


An anemone...super cool!

More anemones.

A little hermit crab.

Buelo in a cave.

Snails.

Some type of mussel.

Another anemone.

This anemone is out of the water. I guess they look prettier when they are under the water, right?

How many anemones do you see?

This anemone is filled with sand.

Buelo found a hermit crab that tried to camouflage itself with seaweed.

A faraway look at some tide pools.

The rocks that help create some of the tide pools.

This is a cluster of barnacles.

Count the anemones again!

Buelo hanging out on the rocks.

Another tide pool. Can you spot the anemone?

Cool rock shelves.

Watch these hermit crabs move. They are cool!

Here are some more hermit crabs.

Love you so much Dave! Have a great day!
