Jellyfish

Description and Comments

I was at the same beach last year, and did not see one Jellyfish in August. This year, 2014, we were surrounded by them on July 1st. I have never seen anything like it. There were so many of them. They were all small, like 1.5-2 inches in diameter...but I probably saw 20 swimming right around me while I stood still. (Location: Twin Shores Beach in Darnley, Prince Edward Island). I saw a crab, too. I am used to swimming in the Atlantic Ocean when I was a kid, but we would only see jellyfish in August when the water was warmer. I know that it was a different beach, but I really was surprised the number that I saw, and mentioned it to my friend, before I knew that your organization existed.
