Observations: Furiously feeding, moves around by cilia, slides up and down in its shell.

It was clear and yellow and had hairs spinning around. It seemed to be eating. It had "legs" that it slid up and down on. It looked like a street sweeper. It was very cool. Joey

Adjective: Glass-like, spectacular

Artists: Angela, Justin, Matt, Joey
