pyrosomes washed up at Manzanita Beach, OR

Description and Comments

Thousands of pyrosomes have been washing up onto Manzanita and NeahKahNie Beach on the north Oregon coast. This has been happening for a couple of weeks since cold, stormy weather and rough seas have been pounding the coast. The photo was taken 12/25/2016. I have several other photos that I was unable to upload with this report. I'd be glad to add them if they'd be helpful.
