They propelled themselves so quickly beneath the water that I could hardly take a picture before they had come and gone.
They are intent on their journey.
Here was the biggest jellyfish I saw today.
Its tentacles waved gracefully, though I understand their purpose is practical, not aesthetic.

I used to love to watch the jellyfish - and to search for starfish in the shallows.
Lovely photos - thanks for sharing.
They're lovely. Funny how they just look like rather disgusting lumps of matter on the beach, but so elegant when in the water. Really enjoying your blog!
Exquisite. Like a Monet painting.
Anne, these photos are amazing. I so much love the contrast of aqua and rusty brown. They almost look like they were taken in the Caribbean. What a marvelous creature for you to have seen in action (also amazing that you caught it on camera!)
Amy-Lynn at Flandrum Hill has identified this jellyfish as a Lion's Mane. Go to her blog at http://flandrumhill.wordpress.com to see her own lovely jellyfish photos and drawing. We have once again posted on similar topics. Our coincidences make for a connection between Cow Bay and McNutt's Island.
I've never watched jellyfish up close and personal. They must be mesmerizing. These are fascinating images, but it's the water that draws me. How beautiful it is!
