I dropped in to Little Bear Bay in time to catch the lowest tide I've seen there.

The beach is sand with stones scattered on top. |
Wonderful! I headed straight out to the edge to look at crabs. And then I looked back and noticed the rocks.
 |
Outer limit of Little Bear Bay. Really, an estuary opening into Johnstone Strait. East Thurlow Island across the water. |
The rocks! The rocks! I abandoned the crabs and went to look at rocks.
The critters weren't as co-operative. But they were there; photos tomorrow.

En la Bahía del Osito (Little Bear Bay) encontré la marea a su nivel mínimo. ¡Perfecto! Salí de inmediato hacia el borde del agua para buscar criaturitas. Y, mirando para atrás, vi las rocas...
- La playa es arenosa, con piedras esparcidas encima.
- La bahía es más bien un estuario, que desemboca en el Estrecho Johnstone. Al otro lado del agua está la isla East Thurlow.
- Las rocas parecen burbujas que escapan, hirviendo, desde debajo del bosque.
- Bastante agrietadas.
- De aquí han salido las piedras que cubren la arena.
- Donde las cubre la marea a diario, llevan bálanos y lapas.
- Y más rocas.
- El mapa del sitio.
Y sí, descubrí mis animalitos; mañana subo las fotos que me permitieron sacar. No estaban tan dispuestos a posar como lo eran las rocas.

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!
