Henricia leviuscula
Small bright orange-red starfish found along west coast of North America. By positioning its arms close together it can move itself or even flip itself over if need be.
Spotted on an exposed rock at low tide. Tide pools at Tongue Point.

Thanks Neil and Danieles for your kind comments.
Beautiful!
Brian, this is seriously awesome. What an amazing find. A big fave, my friend. Well done :)
Thank you for commenting Sukanya, Tukup, and Mauna. I was a bit disappointed that this was the only starfish I found at these tide pools, but I will be posting some other interesting creatures, seaweed, etc. That I found.
I love this!
Cool. Thanks for sharing Brian.
Very acrobatic!
