Thumbs up Yes we have nudibranchs in the winter

I took a picture of a starfish on some dead mans fingers this Tuesday at St Abbs. When I got home and looked at the pictures I noticed two, maybe three and possibly a fourth nudibranch in the picture. I was quite surprised as I had not noticed them during the dive. I'm trying to atach the picture................

I was diving today and could not see nudi's anywhere.

I haven't seen any for weeks. I miss them.

It seems so little is really known about them.

Good find! Probably juvenile Tritonia hombergi (no common name!) - they snack on dead man's fingers, and are difficult to spot.

Nice one! Nudis make any dive for me. Although I can freeze to death on the spot whilst Caroline tries to photograph them so she will be very upse that you got them in and in focus without even knowing they were there

That's a nice photo and very sweet nudis. I saw lots of these in St Abbs in the summer and didn't know they were juveniles.
