Jelly on the beach

A few weeks back I took a walk on the beach near Point Cook, west of Melbourne.

The beach here is part of the bay on which Melbourne sits - Port Philip Bay - rather than the open sea.  There were a few large jelly fish washed up on the beach.


I looks pretty empty for a place less than an hours drive from Melbourne's CBD!

You can find more pictures from around the world at Our World Tuesday.

  9. Wow! That's pretty impressive. Here in Iowa there's definitely no chance of seeing jellyfish.

  10. Whoa - that's quite a find! I suppose you steer clear of them, even when they're beached.

  16. Love the jellyfish! We used to see Man-o-War on the beach when I was a child, in Hawaii and Midway. This big one looks like that.
