Today we took a field trip to the mud flats of Nahant for some invertebrate hunting! The flats are full of worms and clams, and seeing as we just took an exam on Annelids/Arthropods and are starting Molluscs, this trip was quite appropriate. And also gave us an excuse to play in mud.
A very large clam.
Some cone worms (Class Polychaeta), sans their cone homes.
Small holes are a tell-tale sign that creatures are lurking about.
Catch of the day! A longggg ribbon worm!
