Collected as part of an ongoing project with @shawnb2 and the RBCM from a vernal pool on rock at Summit Park, habitat shots attached. Noted the presence of huge numbers of copepods but quite frankly I have a few too many copepods left to examine and opted not to collect.
Microscope imagery to follow before specimens deposited at RBCM for species confirmation.

I've known HB Junior since he was an egg, and now he seems to respond to my voice. He comes running whenever he hears me. Here he has just experienced his first rain.

Pointed out to me by a couple of birders, who suggested it had been “caught by the low tide". They moved it atop the rock.
Compellingly beautiful creature, the photo does not do it justice.
Seek could not identify, even to order.
Of the two species in these waters, looks much more like a Humboldt than an Opalescent.

鰈科 (科 Pleuronectidae)觀察者

Larval right eye flounder that had completed metamorphosis but was still pelagic, near a shallow reef though so possibly preparing to transition to benthic. Could be one of several local species but it lacks the identifiers used in adults, if anyone knows larval flatfishes and could offer ID it would be much appreciated!
