Beware the blue dragon

Blue dragon on Sunshine Beach.

Numerous pretty little “Blue Dragons” recently washed up at Sunshine Beach and local resident David Stinson snapped this shot of one. These are part of a group called Nudibranchia with the name of Glaucus Atlanticus, although looking cute and innocent, be careful if you pick one up, you may be in for an unpleasant surprise. Check them out on Google.
