Late night beachwalk

I just got back from the beach, yeah its late but a zero foot low tide was at 10:30 PM and that was a good enough excuse for me to go play. I was down there for about an hour. Cant say that this was my best one but I did find quite a number of eelpout and they should make an interesting addition to the tanks. I also found a Orcher seastar and a sunflower seastar. Picked up a fist sized cockel and a small geoduck which had washed up and was lying on the top of the sand. Some sandollers rounded out the list with alge coming in as food for the critters and also habitat. 

It was a clear night with no wind but its been about 40 minuets and my thumb has not quite warmed up... the water is still pretty cold.
