[Tracey Crago]

2 February 2005

It may be cold and snowy outside, we've got beachcombing on our minds!

Woods Hole Sea Grant is excited to share our new Beachcomber's 
Companion© cards--a fun twist on the traditional field guide. 
Beachcomber's Companion© cards feature just the right amount of 
user-friendly right amount of user-friendly information for 50 Atlantic 
coast marine invertebrates--perfect for beachcombers of all ages!

Beachcomber's Companion© cards...
. feature marine invertebrates common to the Atlantic Coast
. help beachcombers identify a specimen by size, shape, features, and 
coloration; where to look for it; and fun and interesting facts (what it 
eats and what eats it, how it hides, how it defends itself...)
. come in a handy mesh bag--perfect for holding beachcombing 
treasures--with a special marking pencil for the species checklist card

And be sure to check back to our website, www.beachcomberscompanion.net, 
where--coming soon--you will find special web-only invertebrate cards, 
fun beachcombing information, biographies of the artist, designers, and 
writers who helped create the cards, and more.
