I stayed at a hotel the last time I went to Bei Daihe. The window of my room 　　　 the sea.

　　The sea horse is a fish, but it does not look like one． And it seldom swims． When it does, it swims upright． It is often found with its tail hooked round seaweed． About five inches tall, its body looks like a match stick frame covered with fine cloth． Its brown skin matches the seaweed． This makes it hard to find． It feeds on small worms and shellfish, which it sucks off the weed with a tube-like snout． Both male and female have long hairs on the head, but on the male these hairs extend down the back． When the female lays eggs, the male baby-sits． He keeps the eggs in a pouch until they hatch．
