Beach stranded, Pacific blue bottle jellyfish, smaller relative of the more venomous Portuguese Man-o’-war from the Atlantic.
The gas filled bulb sits above the water at the mercy of the winds.
It still harbours a nasty sting in its long single tentacle even when dead.
WOW!
I looked it up and discovered fantastic things like it is a mixed colony supported by that single bottle fellow…totally amazing..thanks for posting!!
I did the very same thing. Thank you for commenting.
I’m always amazed at how some of the dangerous creatures are so attractive, beautiful, really draw attention. Love that blue.
Me too.
what an extraordinary blue! I love that color! What would you call it?
Maybe royal blue?
Beautifully captured! The blue is incredible.
Thank you, Amy.
