This exquisite creature is mysterious, captivating and enchanting as it moves through the ocean with a grace all its own.
This time of the year in the waters off Ireland they are everywhere and make incredible subjects of photography or observation while waiting to off-gas on our safety stop. They are also everywhere on beaches, washed ashore, where their distinctive compass pattern can be seen draped over rock, shingle and sand.
For me the ‘jellies’ are also synonymous with the warmer (relative) water of Ireland’s Summer.
Expect a few more jellies before summer is over.
