The pictures attached show the potholes in the rock surface on which I'm living. It's called the Esplanade and it erodes into many shapes that hold water. There are many life forms supported by this summer water including the life shown in these pictures. There are 2 shrimp species shown and toad polliwogs. The larger of the 2 shrimp species is about and inch long and the other about the same but much less bulky. All of these animals hatch, grow, reproduce, and lay eggs that resist the dry and hot environment until the next wet period.
