XVI -2 
animals, it seems; I did not know that they had roots holding them to the 
hottom. Well they ha;ve - good for our old steel druml I always thought 
these "fellows" were free swimming/ like sulps. 
$ 63-63 In the fish traps when we got them back were just 2 notothoniid fish 
which I took to he different species, both were saved, a third little 
orange-colored fish the "boys" said to have been in the trap // got away 
in the shuffle; otherwise, there was just a starfish, an ophiuran, a small, 
crushed, red sea-urchin; and a few fragments of algae. 
Except for the interesting sea life that seems to be had here, the 
area as a whole does not particularly appeal to me. Earlier in the summer 
there may be more animal life about, but if we are to biologically do 
Palmerland, I would rather be closer to it.
