Nine-Armed Sea Stars can be found cruising the bottom at the Blue Heron Bridge. This night, we found two individuals approaching each other, as one raised its arms upward (pictured above) in a potential attempt to gain a dominant position over the other. Once they passed each other, I moved in to take a close up of the arms of one of the Sea Stars (pictured below), where you can see the hundreds of little yellow ‘feet’ they use in synchronized movements to move across the bottom.
