EDITORS COMMENTS
Oops, I think I took a wrong turn! This Brittle Star seems to have gotten lost on its way to the underwater party. Stranded on the beach at low tide, this little guy is definitely feeling out of place. With its long and slender arms spread out like a starfish superhero, it's desperately trying to crawl back into the sea. But don't worry, folks! Our concern for this adorable echinoderm is unnecessary. The Brittle Star may look fragile with its radial five-segment body, but it's actually quite resilient. Related to starfish and other marine creatures, these guys know how to survive even in tough situations. From a top view of its full-length glory, you can appreciate the beauty of this European native as it lies gracefully on the sandy shore in Noord-Holland, Netherlands. Its delicate features make it an enchanting sight for any nature lover. So let's give our stranded friend some space and time until high tide comes along. Until then, we can marvel at the wonders that Mother Nature presents us with – even if they occasionally take a detour onto dry land!
