Unusual concentration. We noticed a large concentration of washed up jellies. These are not the typical vellela vellela jellies that we expect to see. This was a tremendous amount of what might have been moon jellies of all sizes in a very high concentration.

It was a gorgeous sunny but quite cold afternoon, with a brisk wind from the northeast blowing sand toward the surf across a wide low-tide beach.
