Las olas no se miden en pies y pulgadas, se miden en incrementos de miedo.

The waves are not measured in feet and inches, they are measured in increments of fear.

The giant green anemone is a species of intertidal sea anemone of the family Actiniidae.
Generally, it is found along the low to mid intertidal zones of the Pacific Ocean, from Alaska to southern California and sometimes downwards to Panama, where cold water swells can occur. It prefers to inhabit sandy or rocky shorelines, where water remains for most of the day. They can generally be found in tide pools up to 15 m deep. Occasionally it can also be found in deep channels of more exposed rocky shores and concrete pilings in bays and harbors.
These anemones tend to live a solitary life, but can be occasionally seen as groups with no more than 14 individuals per square meter. They can move slowly using their basal disks, but usually stay sessile.
The anemone feeds on sea urchins, small fish, and crabs, but detached mussels seem to be the main food source. There are rare instances where the giant green anemone has consumed seabirds. It is not known whether the birds were alive or dead when engulfed by the anemone. (Wikipedia)
One evening we went to the tidal pools along the coast to look for fish, anemones and sea stars. It was adventure scrambling over the huge rocks, but we were rewarded with this anemone just under the surface of the water. No evidence of it having eaten a bird recently was found :-)

Taken the other day when we had the big swell and had to try for a long exposure of course. This was a safe vantage point for a 30 second exposure
The good news, my MRi shows no shoulder impingement, bad news, got a considerable tear in my Rotator Cuff that needs fixing, conservative treatment not going to cut the mustard in this case! All my bloods and ob's are good so in on Monday for initially, endoscopic repair of a torn rotator cuff and then a few weeks of physio before I can consider cycling and basketball again........and now a little interlude, an Atlantic swell, Coverack, Cornwall
