Here's a green shore crab, hogging a section for himself, keeping an eye out for marauding hermits.

I gave them enough for a small plate of sushi last night. This morning, there wasn't a shred left.

People food
In midwinter, the seaweed harvest on the shore is limited; here, it's mostly shreds of red algae, much battered, and mostly rotting. Occasionally, then, I supplement my critters' diet with a bit of people food, from the supermarket. Dried nori seaweed, made for sushi wraps. The brand I buy contains nothing but seaweed; no flavourings or additives. And all my critters love it! (Even the mud snails.)

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!

when you are in the big city, check out the asian market for Kombu, dried kelp. It is used for making soups and broths, but can also be eaten for itself. Usually comes in dired sheets, but does come flaked
ReplyDeleteKombu. I'll make a note of it. Thanks!
