Tag Archives: formerly called Starfish

It looks the Sea Stars continue to recover from the wasting disease. CeCe Case photographed a group of Ochre Stars at low tide. As you can see, they come in a variety of colors!

They were formerly called Starfish, but they aren't fish. Hence the name change to Sea Stars. Ochre Stars normally have five arms, but I saw a recent photo of one with eight arms.

There are many incredible creatures living in the intertidal zone.

Thanks to CeCe for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

Cooler today, with a breeze off the ocean.

Spring doesn't know...
