Physalia physalis, caravela portuguesa

This morning on the beach, those were much bigger than usual...
I was walking my dogs without my camera, so this was taken with iPhone using Leica app, the quality is what it can be...

A great series, though they do carry a sting. Known here as "Bluebottles".

This is a fantastic series Isabel...........I love the colours shapes and detail. They look amazing! ⭐️

Am I right to assume these are dead? What happened to their stingers?

Xata ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

When they are on sand is because they are dead… the stingers are the dark blue, seems they “melt”…

How strange..........sad to hear they are dead though! Such beautiful creatures......but deadly!

Faltam os raios.
Estavam partidos e ficaram presos algures...
Sem os raios andaria depressa demais e nunca mais teria condições para comer como precisa.

Ficaram por baixo, emaranhados num novelo... Nunca tinha visto uma tão grande (bem, eram duas), do tamanho de tangerinas.
