Every Rose Has Its Thorn

I'm back at camp! This month is going to be pretty slow with work, because we don't start to get a lot of school's in until the end of February. I've already had my first run at coordinating (I design the school's schedule for their stay at camp and teach a teaching group as well as helping the other teaching groups for the school). It went really well. The last day we went to the Bahia Honda channel and collected critters in the tide pools by the bridge. The students found some really neat stuff including a few sea hares, like this one:
(This is not one of the ones actually collected. I found this picture at InvertabratesofBelize.com)

One of the sea hares inked all over my hands. It literally took me about 10 minutes to get the purple ink off of my hands. At least their ink smells like roses.
