The picture contest

For those of you searching your brains and your libraries, the creature in the contest is a nudibranch . . . and, according to the great book given to us by the Hoggs, it is a close relative of the snail but which has been deprived of its protective shell. They are known as "jewels of the sea" because of their beauty. Of all our friends, we knew Mark Wheeler would be the one to get it and he did. Millions to him!
