Starfish(es)



I found this poor starfish stranded way up on the sidewalk. Most of his legs were chewed up. My guess is that some sea gull was dining on him for breakfast. So, knowing that under the right circumstances his legs could grow back, I picked him up and flung him as far into the water as I could.

I suppose some would complain that I was interfering with Nature again. But I just didn't have the heart to turn my back on him and walk away.

Here's another type of starfish I found further along the beach.
