Come and see this amazing little animal: the tailwind sailor, also called the sail jellyfish. It was also the first time I saw them on the beach, they were so small that if I didn't pay attention, I would think they were small pebbles or something. I noticed these little things because I was looking for fun stones on the beach to take pictures, and pointed them to my baby, who was running around barefoot, and he immediately went to put on his shoes [croak]

This sail jellyfish is a marine plankton of the hydra, silver coin jellyfish family, sail jellyfish, the jellyfish floating capsule body is oval, disc-shaped, 5-8 cm in diameter, named for a triangular windsurf board erected above the floating capsule body. There are long tentacles with spiny cells. The body of the float is bluish blue, the windboard is colorless and transparent, and it floats on the surface of the water with the wind or current.

Sail jellyfish are close relatives of jellyfish, animals that float in the ocean. It is characterized by an inflatable sail-like floating sac with tentacles with spiny cells underneath, genitals, and vegetative bodies (feeding and digestive organs).

I'm seeing this thing for the first time, so the photos I took are a bit much [cover my face]

The last two pictures show them scattered on the beach, and if you don't pay attention, you won't notice their small sails
