Jellyfish have been possibly around 700 million years or longer, before dinosaurs lived on the Earth.
Jellyfish bodies are actually made up of as much as ~98 % water.
Jellyfish have no heart, bones, brain, ears, noses or even
eyes(some have eyes).
Jellyfish mouth is found in the centre of its body, they use mouth for both eating and pooping.
Some Jellyfish's may never actually die (Theoretically Immortal!).
Some jellyfish are clear, but others are vibrant colours of pink, yellow, blue and purple.
Jellyfish produce their own light!

I love watching these jellies propel themselves around their perfectly lit tanks in the aquarium. Of course, they are not fish, but planktonic scyphozoan, which have two life phases. The first is a polyp that lives at the bottom of the ocean. This is the medusa phase, which is commonly seen in warm months.
Hope you are have a great weekend ahead.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all. Take care and stay safe!

This beautiful glass orb was a gift from the lovely Kelley, Tracey, Diane and Jenny while we were in Sechelt. Thank you ladies!
It looks like a jellyfish to me :)
A shot of some frog spawn piling up above the water surface of the pond in Dunlop Millennium Woodland Nature Park. When viewing the photos on my PC, I was surprised to see some yellow globular springtails rambling on the spawn, but I hadn't captured them well enough to do anything with the image. I'm curious whether they were aquatic springtails, or just some that rambled onto the pond---will add to my `to investigate' list :D

Northern New Hampshire is dotted with small tourist cottages. A few of these "motor courts" are still in business, but many, like this one, are no longer being maintained, and so the cute little cottages are slowly decaying. Relics of an already distant past, when life moved more slowly, and more time was taken to stop along the way.
Thank you for visiting!

Thank you to everyone who views, faves or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.

I enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Tangled Garden in Grand Pre, NS, and was lucky to have a tour of the gardens by the delightful owner, Beverly McClare. I really admire her philosophy and her approach to gardening. This 2 minute video gives a quick glimpse into the beautiful world she creates. We've enjoyed her jellies since arriving home, and I just might order more online - they're soooo delicious!
