One of the Red Algae, this species has new, cup shaped growth each winter that would eventually replace the older blade below it. This tattered one and many others even more torn were found in the beach wrack,

When I express interest in a seaweed, people often ask if it is edible. In this case, probably not, but I have just read, "Extracts from this seaweed have been shown to inhibit several viruses." [You never know!]--Mondragon & Mondragon, Seaweeds of the Pacific Coast

Fiquei fascinada com o efeito da luz da manhã nestas rochas cobertas de musgo... ou de algas - alguém sabe identificar ao certo?...

I was mesmerized by the effect of the morning light on these moss- or algae-covered rocks - can anyone identify which is it?...

Cleaned the pavilion roof

Today we cleaned the polycarbonate pavilion roof. It’s just over 3 years since we built it.

With the help of our window cleaner and his extra long brush we got it clean. It was covered in yellow algae .

The secret was using a detergent called TFR (Traffic film remover) mixed with water, brushed, and then hosed off.

We built the pavilion in April 2021.

This species of Brown Algae lives at the edge of the intertidal and subtidal, where it is continuously pounded by surf.

Dry, damp with algae, and submerged!

At the waterline.

This species of Green Algae usually appears black to me, like a mass of tar, but some places it must look more green.

More of the coots in our pond. There's a family with four babies. One of the parents has got a broken leg, no idea what I can do about it.

There's also a family with two babies on the other side of the pond. Coots are supposed to be not very nice to each other so maybe the families got into the fight and that is how one of the coots got injured.

Captured these Black Swans cruising around this algae coated lake during a birding session at Hunter Wetlands Center (Shortland, NSW, Australia) a couple of days ago.

Hope you like it!

This is the algae the green water deposited on the beach.

Primordial (adj.) - Latin, "first of all, original". A large planter filled with water became covered with a sheet of algae. When I poured the water out, the algae draped over the bedraggled remains of the planter's shrub, trapping bubbles. The late afternoon light, filtered through these agglutinous films, presented a most peculiar aspect. I imagine it as the dawn of life, with primitive unicellular creatures emerging from the primordial ooze and creeping towards the sun...

Algae growing on sharp volcanic rocks in the tidal zone on Kepuhi on the western side of Molokai. Looks almost like the rocks have hair or fur.

At low tide, and after several sunny days, the colorful images you can find at the rock formations close to the sea are quite amazing!
