Hi all. This last weekend we were up in Blaine and I found some interesting critters in the low intertidal zone. Wondering if anyone can help ID them... The first is an egg mass, deposited on an old barnacle-encrusted shell. There were a fair number of them scattered about the tideflats, in shells, on the occasional rock, anything semi-solid really...
The other is a critter that looks like a jellyfish, but with 'extras' attached... Budding off maybe? Never seen anything quite like it. Grains of sand for scale in the photo.
It was a minus tide, so we got the chance to *really* explore out a long ways...
