Jelly on the beach

A few weeks back I took a walk on the beach near Point Cook, west of Melbourne.

The beach here is part of the bay on which Melbourne sits - Port Philip Bay - rather than the open sea.  There were a few large jelly fish washed up on the beach.


I looks pretty empty for a place less than an hours drive from Melbourne's CBD!

You can find more pictures from around the world at Our World Tuesday.

    That's a common enough sight around these parts, too. :)

    Wow! That's pretty impressive. Here in Iowa there's definitely no chance of seeing jellyfish.

    Whoa - that's quite a find! I suppose you steer clear of them, even when they're beached.

    We get jellyfish die-offs in S. CA, but they are usually little guys!

    Love the jellyfish! We used to see Man-o-War on the beach when I was a child, in Hawaii and Midway. This big one looks like that.
