seining

I've never been seining before.


Today my son's marine biology class went to the beach to identify organisms. The kids were met by a naturalist who provide some supplies for them to work with, including a large seining net. It took several kids to get out there and maneuver the net.  Even though it was windy and chilly, there were still a few people out there in their swim suits! I have to say though, our kids were not worried in the least about how they looked, or worrying about extreme weight loss pills; they were busy capturing a few small fish, a crab and a trumpet fish,  and collecting sand crabs and sea shells.


That I'd like to see.
