FILTER-FEEDING WITH FEATHERS
                 Instead of moving around in search of food, many marine animals
                 spend their lives fixed to the sea bed, collecting food as it drifts
                 past. These feather-like funnels are actually part of the body of a
                 worm. The worm beats tiny, hair-like structures to set up a current
                 through the funnels and then traps food from the moving water.
