       I grew up on the Maine coast and spent a lot of my childhood exploring tidal pools. What I found were usually hermit crabs, marine worms, barnacles, and mermaid’s purses. The saltwater diversity in those tiny habitats was amazing and strongly inspired my lifelong love of nature. Fast forward a bunch of years and I live on a brook. This freshwater version is wonderful too. I’m surprised at some of the critters I find. #nature #NewEngland

       @danmccullough Yeah, it’s amazing how the closer one looks, the more is found.

       @TimKStanton With tidal pools it was a race against time as the tide was always changing. Along the brook it’s a bit slower which fits my age a bit better. 😄
