Description

Pointed out to me by a couple of birders, who suggested it had been “caught by the low tide". They moved it atop the rock.

Compellingly beautiful creature, the photo does not do it justice.

Seek could not identify, even to order.

Of the two species in these waters, looks much more like a Humboldt than an Opalescent.
