The group learned about the lives of sea stars, anemones, chitons, limpets, snails, shrimps, clams and crabs among other classes of invertebrates.
Fish, such as sculpins and blennies, were found in tide pools under some of the rocks. Green, red and brown seaweed were also evidence of the prolific life along the coast of Puget Sound.
