SCENICS
Common Sunstar
A reef wall on a clear day in the North Sea. A Common Sunstar or Crossaster papposus is moving across a bed of Plumose Anemones or Metridium senile. The anemones have retracted their feathery tentacles, with which they catch their planktonic food, as the tide has stopped running.
Location: North Sea. St. Abbs Marine Reserve
