I was sneaking around in your back yard again Rich. I only got one long dive in but the diversity never lets me down. No prize photos here but you get an idea of the abundant selection. I am not sure if this 1st one is a Dall's Dendronotid or a Multicolor Dendronotid. Maybe you can help me out.
I believe this one is a Nanaimo. Again, if I am mistaken, please let me know & explain the subtle differences.
This next guy wasnt far away but I was thinking Hudsons Dorid for him.
My dive buddy(agent 47) spotted this Giant Red Dendranotid & I found this bundle of eggs not far from him(her?) so I will put the blame for the eggs sqarely on this critter but I can't prove it.
You'll not the current is blowing so hard that it is laying this guy over flat. At least he had something to hold on too! This was down on the tip of the Jetty just up from the barge. Seems like the current is always the worst right there.
Clear me up on this next one. It looks like the one you just posted but I would have called it Flabellina Verrucosa if I hadnt seen your pic 1st. You can tell by the orange sociall ascidian next to it that it is very small. Which do I have here? I saw several of them on this dive-all quite small.
My last contribution from the Point is a Spotted Aglajid which I have only seen a few times & never before in PT. I found 2 of them on this dive.
Where did all the eelgrass go Rich?
