Jellies off south shore Nova Scotia

Description and Comments

Went for a SUP near Cherry Hill and spotted dozens of lions mane jellies (Cyanea capillata) in a wide range of sizes (BD ~few cm up to ~10cm). Also noticed several lobate ctenophores, barrel-shaped, about 8-10cm long and ~4cm across, all of which had a purple hue.
