Marine life found in Belle Greve Bay on Guernsey's east coast. Guernsey is the second largest island in the Channel Islands located between England and France. The gallery begins with general views of the bay followed by major groups of animals including sponges, cnidarians, worms, crustaceans, molluscs, echinoderms, ascidians, fishes and ending with some algae.
This image shows a dahlia anemone, Urticina felina, in a crevice, which has been left dry by the receding tide. The image was taken in Belle Greve Bay with a 2.8 megapixel Olympus digital camera. I have more attractive images of dahlia anemones taken underwater in the 'La Valette' and 'cnidaria' galleries. As a developer called Long Port has published plans to landfill large portions of Belle Greve Bay I thought it was important to show images of some of the diverse wildlife that inhabits this productive bay on Guernsey's east coast. This image was taken on 20 April 2003.
