marine shoreline lagoon habitat
Bright orange worm Tubulanus polymorphus swimming in a bed of kelp
Along the rocky shore of Strait of Juan de Fuca at Clallam Bay Park and Slip Point during low tide.
poachers found at low tide beach near eelgrass/seaweed bed
I think this is a crescent gunnel??? I thought it was an eel. It was hiding under a rock as the tide went down
Looking to ID the fish not the Steller Sea Lion
Seen with @aiva
Found tidepooling
Maybe a Pholis clemensi (Longfin Gunnel)? This 3" fish was so small and thin we first thought it was a red ribbon worm. It was out of the water during the minus tide and gasping for air. We tried to move it to the water without touching it.
Any tips on how to ID would be much appreciated!
Found while tidepooling
Found on herpetology walk, near creek.
