  "text": "I think it's been long enough to justify another rock pool post. Well. I did post about the anemone yesterday. But that was almost 24 whole hours ago so...\n\nWe headed out into yet another beautiful winter's day only to discover massive seas and quite strong winds on the water so husband's drone stayed firmly packed away in the god awful bag he insists on carrying it around in. Not a bum bag, not a lap top case, I think this monstrosity was a Discman holder in a previous life 😂🙄😳 I judge the hell out of Matt every time he turns up somewhere and I see that bag with him. Still, hopeful of some awesome animal based footage from the drone one day.\n\nAnyway I chased around the Welcome Swallows that were hovering low in the wind and resting regularly on the sand and was planning to post some photos of them. But then. Look, I'm a sucker for sea stars especially ones doing  something fancy ass such as growing back their damn legs. It's incredible. \n\nYou might remember the video I posted of the Eleven-Armed Sea Star I found with only 3 legs. I speculated that perhaps it had regrown from a lost limb (they can regrow as long as part of the central disc is connected) but was advised by a researcher that it was more likely a result of fissiparity which is basically asexual reproduction that some species of sea stars use to reproduce. They basically tear themselves down the middle so you are left with 2 sea stars. Amazing. \n\nThe one I saw today had 4 fully grown legs and 6 small ones. So odd looking. So of course I had to take pics and post. It was right up at the edge of the tide line which was great because it made getting shots so much easier but as I watched it, it became clear that the tide was receding and for some reason it was struggling to get into a sheltered part of a rock pool - in fact it was not in a rock pool at all, just out exposed with the water getting more shallow by the minute. I tend to be hands off as far as critters go but with this one I felt I had no choice and was able to (eventually) pick it up - those tube feet are VERY good at sticking to surfaces - and move it to a pool with water and loads of weed and it quickly made itself scarce. Please forgive the rock pool content once again but there are just some things that I can't say no to (like watermelon and Cadbury dream chocolate and wine 😂)\n\nEleven-Armed Sea Star\nSandon Point\n\n#northernillawarra #sandonpoint #coalcoast #seastar #elevenarmedseastar #rockpools #rockpooling #blueplanet #backyardzoology",
