Not a great photo

But it has a better story! This is a female octopus with her eggs. Before we got there, she had left the eggs unattended and an unsuspecting starfish was climbing the window toward them (to eat them?). The mother octopus (though they don't think the eggs are fertile) jetted over, pried the starfishes arms off the window with her tentacles and threw it on the ground. I wish I had seen it!

Crab and more


I can't remember what kind of crab this is, but it is pretty scary looking (or it would be if it were larger!). We were really interested in the decorator crabs we saw, but we didn't get any pictures of them.

Meterology

We visited the Rochester Museum and Science Center when my family came at Christmas. Here Ryan practices weather forecasting for some weather incident that I don't remember. You could e-mail the video of your forecast to someone. We were entertained by ourselves.
