Visiting The Barangay Punta Silum Shoreline

Earlier I thought of going to the beach of Barangay Punta Silum. It was Saturday and I had nothing to do in life, so I thought of wandering around the beautiful places in this Barangay. That's right and when I got there, the sea water or low tide was dropping a lot and when we talk about low tide, many people go to the beach to hunt for food in the family.

When I arrived there, I found this woman who was busy looking for seashells, crabs and other types of sea food for each family to eat. Because the seaweeds or sea plants are thick, it's better to dig them to see what they are looking for that can be eaten.
During my tour of the area I saw some beautiful animals that live in the sea and this is what I will share for today.

It is one of the so-called sea urchins or animals that have thorny parts on their bodies. According to people who know it, it can be eaten, all you have to do is put it in a pan and heat it until the water in its body disappears. Its contents are edible and have beautiful colors and designs such as thorns and round balls.

This is a type of sea sponge. This type of animal is very soft and likes to move from place to place. And the sea sponge has many colors including its shape. It likes to hide under large rocks and its shape is wide.

It is a type of seashells that can be eaten. Its people call it takakon because it is difficult to get its contents. It is delicious in milk or stewed and the only thing to do is to cut off its sharp parts so that it can be easily picked up in its house. It is not immediately visible because it is camouflaged or the color matches the place where it lives.

This is called sihi, a type of seashells that are delicious to eat especially when cooked in milk. It is not immediately visible because of its color. It hides in the ruins or holes of large rocks or corals. People love to take it and the area is full of such things. Its color is very beautiful and it has black and yellow color on the part of its body.

This is the most beautiful coral reef I have ever seen. It is located near a large stone hole and has a beautiful shape and design. There are small holes in its bony stone with lines or stripes. It also helps fish and other marine species to hide. Every part of the stone is wrinkled so it adds to its beauty.

This is what we call kaho-kahoy, others call it guso, a type of seaweed that can be eaten. It contains iodine that can help prevent goiter. It grows on large rocks such as corals and other watery places.

I am also entertained by this place. Because here in the small hole there are hidden various fish. All the fish found here can be eaten and are delicious cooked in fish soup. It can also be bathed because the bottom part is all sand. He can be considered like a swimming pool I call it.

To my friend @coolmidwestguy , here are some parts of our place here in the Philippines Brother. The place that God has given us all is truly beautiful, and it is up to us how we take care of it.
