“Mom, I don’t think these are fresh water shrimp. They were in really icky water when we found them,” Benjamin informed me, while watching his critters* swim.
Manny and the older boys had been canoeing on the river when they found a small pool full of these critters. I told the boys they might be fresh water shrimp… Proving that words do indeed have many meanings.
*Septeber 3, 2008 Update: We found out what these are…Mosquito larvae. Oops, not what I consider suitable “pets.”
