Olly the oyster works hard every day cleaning
the water in the Chesapeake Bay.

Here are just a few great things about Olly and
his oyster friends:

•        Oysters are great for the environment.

•        Oysters filter and clean the water just
    by breathing.

•        A single oyster can filter 60 gallons
    of water a day!

•        Oysters live together in groups called
    oyster reefs.

•        Oyster reefs provide homes for many
    other sea animals like crabs, worms,
    and small fish.
