From 1" to 3 3/4" in one year! I knew Snappers grow quickly, but I was
surprised at how much he changed in that first year. He went from being a tiny,
shy little black squiggle, to a hefty, voracious predator with a lovely
mahogany (sp?) shell. His growth rate has slowed considerably since then.

Sea Foam
This is a natural process occurring in especially big seas, where plankton and other small sea organisms are literally pulverised against the rocks of the shoreline, resulting in a very fine protein suspension in the sea which coats the air-bubbles created by the waves to create a stiff froth, just the same way as egg protein coats air bubbles to make meringue, and beer protein coats air bubbles to produce a head of foam in a beer glass. from viv.id.au/blog/20070827.871/sea-foam/
It's a great year for brambles, so I made bramble jelly. Here we've spread cream cheese onto thick white toast, added the jelly, and topped it with some of the fresh berries.
