Description
Large gooseneck barnacles with white cirri attached to a rock outcrop. Thelowest barnacle has red appearing cirri. Is this a function of lighting or isthis a real affect with something causing red coloration of some of the cirri? (Image credit: NOAA OKEANOS EXPLORER Program; Our Deepwater Backyard)
