There are many termite nests for instance. Termites eat wood and use their feces to build nests. Small land crabs live in holes in the earth. The brackish pond was also a very interesting place to explore. There is no oxygen in this environment so anything that lives in the pond must adapt accordingly.
Bloodworms are one type of organism that live in the pond.
They have a substance similar to hemoglobin in their systems, which allows them to live in this anoxic environment. Bordeaux Mountain Hike Bordeaux Mountain Bordeaux Mountain is the highest point on St. John at 1277 feet. Our group hiked all the way to the top, making stops at the Reef Bay Sugar Mill ruins and the Petroglyphs. The mill ruins are located close to the bay for easy transport of processed sugar. The Petroglyphs are an archaeological mystery-no one seems to know exactly who made them.
