Baby barnacles less than 2 mm long appear as light dots on  rocks and shells and even adult barnacles during early Spring in New England. Once they decide to cement permanently onto a surface, they secrete one of the strongest adhesives in the natural world and attach themselves face down. These creatures emit feathery appendages called cirri, basically feet to rake plankton and microscopic organisms into their shells for sustenance, while cleaning the waters around them. I first noticed these tiny barnacles in tide pools along the shoreline of the Long Island Sound and spent hours fascinated by these sesame seed-like creatures sifting through brightly-colored algae

For spring break, my daughter, two nieces, and I finally experienced the northern lights! Traveling to northern Sweden, we stayed in Abisko National Park in a cabin, hiked everyday, and took an arctic plunge in Lake Torneträsk. Lucky for us, the aurora borealis appeared two of the three nights we were there, providing a spectacular light show.
