Couple of nice surprise molluscs over the weekend. Oddly the Grey Sea Slug seems to be a lifer though I know for sure I have seen one before!
Also found were Sea Lemon eggs, helpfully shown in the Collins Shore guide.

ReplyDeleteThose eggs are downright weird. But then so are the adults. Cool find, I like weird :)
