Moon Jellyfish (Aurelia aurita)

Moon Jellyfish (Aurelia aurita)

A washed up Moon Jellyfish (Aurelia aurita) and Razor Clam on Rhyl Beach.

Yesterday saw strong north-westerly winds after quite an extended period of warm weather, and during our 1.5 mile walk along the strand line we came across several hundred Moon Jellyfish, a lesser number of Compass Jellyfish (Chrysaora hysoscella) and Lion's Mane Jellyfish (Cyanea capillata).
