Waste not ...

It's not only the hermit crabs who use leftover empty shells:

Orange-striped green anemones, Diadumene lineata, in empty barnacle shells.

These tiny anemones are quite mobile, and flit from wall to rock to shell to seaweed, always seeming to search for variety. Or maybe safety; these ones are staying put. No-one steps on them, no-one tries to push them aside.

Room with a view.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
