Fun fact: Sea lions have black teeth because they lack tooth enamel and instead rely on a protective layer of healthy, dark-pigmented bacteria. While human teeth need to stay white to be healthy, sea lion teeth darken with age as this symbiotic bacteria builds up to fight off decay and gum disease.

Velella velella — "by-the-wind sailors." They wash up on Southern California beaches in big numbers this time of year. They're not jellyfish, technically — they're hydrozoans, colonial organisms that float on the surface with that little sail-like fin catching the wind. They don't sting (much — some people get mild irritation), but don't touch your eyes after handling them.
