Re: Whidbey Island Critters
I visited Skyline Wall as the tide and current cycle again provide friendlier environment.

Re: Whidbey Island Critters
The Orange Feather Duster Worms is seldom orange, at least at Keystone the prevailing color is red.
At least from my experience. Maybe the orange ones hide from me when they sense my approach ...

Re: Whidbey Island Critters
Saturday was not all that cheerful above the water, but once we got under, the colors are still there. Just bring some lights,
for the heavy overcast above and plenty of silt in the water makes it look dark. Diving with my daughter is always fun,
for once I can include a diver in the scene ...

Hi Jan,
Lovely detailed images as always - congratulations!
Pardon my ignorance but, in the upper photo of the red rock crab panel, what is the crab walking across?
Curiously yours,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks, glad you enjoy the panels, the crabs are nestled over cluster of Ostrich-plume hydroids ( Aglaophenia spp.). I think

Re: Whidbey Island Critters
Few more from the Deception Pass under the sea gardens. Except the one of flatfish lure, which was hanging off the clay wall at Possession Point Fingers, the other end of Whidbey Island.
BTW, watch out for the fishing lines connected to the lost lures and not necessary connected to the fishing rod above ...
