I stopped by a random spot on the coast to soak up the sun and scenery for a little while before continuing on. In just one tide pool I saw this beautiful baby black ribbon eel and more! For once I had my phone handy and I got video of the black eel. Then as I was leaving I noticed these weird looking, moving, almost hairy legs sticking out of the rocks. I gently moved a couple of rocks and saw the full brittle star! How cool!!! See video above! I also saw a black and white banded eel sneak under a rock but I wasn't fast enough to get it on video. I did sit, camera focused on it's rock, for a good 5 minutes waiting but it didn't come out. I appreciate living here for so many reasons but taking a quick break and seeing something like that is so special. 🙂 My first ever brittle star sighting in person. I do recall seeing them on nat geo though!
