Down in Rocky Point, in Mexico. I was admiring the worms in the sand on the beach. Now I know that many of you probably are disgusted by the thought of worms. But these were rather interesting when they moved across the sand. As the surf came in and out it provided for a thin layer of water that the worms used to move across the surface with ease. Also, fascinating was the color of the creatures. They were somewhat transparent except for a thin green line that ran down through their bodies. As they slithered across the ground this green line was quite impressive as it curled and rippled when they moved. On my web site you can view a small video clip of this.
