There's a sea cucumber hidden down there in the dark! New blog post: wanderinweeta.blogspot.com/202… #VancouverIsland #IntertidalInvertebrates #Invertebrates #MarineInvertebrates #InverteFest #NaturePhotography
A bright orange, shiny wet "thing" like a flattish lump with warts on top, projecting tubes or tentacles at the sides, a mass of leafy stuff in front. It's the front end of an Orange Sea Cucumber, Cucumaria miniata, projecting out from beneath a rock in the low intertidal zone. The projections at the sides are the tube feet. In front are the extremely branched tentacles around the mouth, at the moment semi-retracted. The rest of the animal is a paler, soft-looking, almost shapeless blob.

Cukes, worms, etc.
