The Hunter’s Moon rising tonight, glowing golden as it climbs above the horizon. 🌕✨ There’s something magical about the way the moon welcomes the night and reflects on the water.

🌊 The powerful El Niño system has already caused coastal damage and erosion. Now a regional Kelvin wave is impacting Southern California. Here’s the current tide in Laguna Beach.
As evening settles over the meadow at Estes Park in Colorado, elk gather and graze in the golden grass during mating season. No bugling or displays of dominance this time, just a peaceful evening in nature. 🦌
One aspen tree is part of a much larger organism. A group, called a “clone,” shares one underground root system, with genetically identical trees. In Colorado, they light up the landscape in brilliant yellow each fall. 💛🍂

The Lion’s mane jelly, this colorful jellyfish may have a very toxic sting, but reports of human deaths are rare. They can grow up to 3 feet (1 m) wide, with tentacles reaching over 100 feet (30 m) long and, due to its tentacles, is one of the longest animals in the world.
Many sandy beaches across Southern California are getting smaller as high tides and the impact of the latest hurricane accelerate coastal erosion. Here’s Grandview Beach in Encinitas, San Diego County. 🌊
Mesmerizing… the graceful beauty of Honduras’ sea nettles, an underwater dance of light and motion. 🌊🪼✨

The Flower Hat Jelly, a rare hydromedusa with neon tipped tentacles. Found off Japan and South Korea, it hides on the seafloor by day and hunts fish at night. Its sting is seriously painful! 🪼
