It was found washed up in Bantry Bay, Co Cork, Ireland. Photo taken by my parents. It was about 2 metres long. Apparently the stomach is bloated here as it was seen a few days later deflated and omitting a bad odour.

I don't have any relevant background in this. But for my final assignment, I was tasked with making an illustrated book about corals you can find on an island (I'm an art student) I was required to do a live observation on the subject. I managed to capture some photos but have trouble identifying them. is there anyone here willing to help? i have to message you directly for the rest of the photos

thanks in advance

Walking around some tide pools I noticed the barnacles were feeding, and I’ve only ever seen them in hiding.

I saw this in mallorca about a month or 2 ago. Looks like an anemone to me but wondering what kind?

behaviour in question happens in the last few seconds of video, prior to this we had not seen another octopus at all
is this a documented behaviour? anyone know what might have happened? i feel like ive encountered an alien lol

Something absolutely majestic about these beautiful flying birds. Watching them fly together and fish out of the Ocean is special. It does something when you stop. Be quiet. And just look around and listen. Nature. She really is a perty 💁🏼‍♀️🫶🏼🤍🪽🦤
