Very nice spotting! If you can add more information about how you found the wildlife in your description, it will make it more interesting.
Excellent information -- thanks Christie.
Ava,
He/she did go back - he/she was collected by elementary schoolers on a field trip to the tide pools which I helped out with as a scientific expert. All of the animals were collected to show the kids incredible diversity that sits just a few feet from shore, and were returned afterwards :)
Welcome to Project Noah, NerdyChristie. Can you tell us more about this spotting? Did he/she get put back in the ocean?
