Photo of the Day: Starfishin’

Starfish at Cannon Beach

Perhaps it’s the fact that I’m headed to Kauai soon. Or perhaps it’s because in general the weather is warming up here in Seattle. But my thoughts are drifting to the beach.

I discovered the starfish above at Cannon Beach in Oregon a few years back. I haven’t had much luck over the years to see so much ocean life during low tide at CB but this was one of those times.

Notice the skewers on the ones below from a Beijing market – yum – huh?

STUNNING photos, Beth! I’ve been a city girl for far too long; every time I see nature photos like this my jaw drops. Looking forward to your photos from Kauai.

I vote yes to starfish! We always find the big fat orange and purple ones down in Lincoln Park when the tide is low, it’s a thing of wonder.
