PART 1
We vacation quite a bit in Naples and our favorite place to go is the beach. Since this year we are doing Apologia Swim Creatures on the 5th day it's perfect for us because the Naples beach is filled with abundant sea life which we have been blessed to see up close, touch and hold in our hands.
Sea Star
Hermit Crab
Sea Anemone
Calico Crab with eggs on her bottomside
This was our most awesome find - a baby octopus that was no bigger than my thumb - I still can't believe we found this little guy close to shore!
Inside our sand bucket - we collected sea life on our walk (we put everything back when we were done observing them, everything that was alive was placed back into the ocean)
Florida Fighting Conch (above outside, below inside - look that this little guy - what beautiful eyes!)
What a great day, God answered my prayer that morning for not rain and for Him to bless us with finding some of His creatures. What an awesome God we have!
That little octopus is amazing!
