@CatherineBabault@mastodon.social Needs a little more time in the pan! Very nice! I'd never heard or seen an Egg Yoke Jelly. Fascinating looking creature.
@CatherineBabault@mastodon.social @tantramar@zeroes.ca hard to believe that's a photo! Looks like an impressionist painting by J. M. W. Turner.

Really unusual photo.
I recall seeing jellyfish washed up at low tide in the morning as a child and was taught to give them wide berth.
Always reddish, never the marigold of the one in your photo.
As a child who learned early to swim with water shoes on beaches that were covered with barnacled shellfish and periwinkles, and who combed the tidal pools for anemones to trigger closed, there wasn’t much else that gave me pause other than the tickle of an undertow.
@CatherineBabault@mastodon.social theme from Jaws, but with chicken sounds.
