Amazing Animals: Seashore Animal [VHS]
Seashore Animalsfeels like a second-rate show that didn't quite make the line-up when compared to many of the other fascinating top-notch videos in the Amazing Animals series. There are the usual pictures of animals doing the darndest things, from crabs burying themselves in the mud to turtle moms laying eggs in the sand, but the fast pace and plentiful information so prevalent in other videos in the series, such asAnimal JourneysorScary Animalsis, unfortunately, missing. But it's hard to completely dislike any half-hour that features beautiful shots of pelicans, eerie footage of starfish traveling in rock pools, and pictures of dozens of too-cute baby ducks scurrying down to the sea.--Valerie J.
