Congratulations Christiane on another awesome Spotting of the Day!

This sea anemone may look like a beautiful flower but appearances can be deceiving! It is actually an efficient predator, dispatching its victims with a harpoon-like filament containing a paralyzing neurotoxin, triggered when an organism touches its tentacles, before chowing down on its prey.
