I dunno, he looks cute and then again, not so cute! I wish you had been with me when I saw the baby cardinal trying to fly – you could have really taken some great shots!
My macro monday almost made me lose my marble(s)! http://www.soeursdujour.com/2009/07/marble-macro-monday.html

Hello Lisa,
these little urchins look less threatening than those black ones with long spikes that I have seen…
Michelle Johnson said,
How cute this little sea urchin. Thanks for sharing. Have a great night.

I’m going out on a limb, but I’m thinking this guy does not want a hug.

Sushi on the hoof!…er… fin? Okay maybe not. Pretty cool shots… in a creepy sort of way.
Jan said,
Great shots, Lisa.

I love your urchins Lisa. I did a duh when I linked with Mr. Linky. I hit my URL too quickly and entered last weeks by mistake. I put the correct URL in and now I have two links. Sorry.
All of my good macros were shot with a Nikon F3HP and slide film. I simply can’t afford to replicate that quality in digital (yet). Sigh.

PS once upon a time, I had to decide between Canon and Pentax. This was back in 1970 when Nikon was king. I chose a Pentax Spotmatic (never regretted it) because the accessories were cheaper and I was pinching pennies.

Every time I see a picture of one of these, the same thought goes through my head. That I really really really would like to taste them someday. I know they’re delicious, and I’ve wanted to buy them when I see them at the local market in Provence, but I just don’t know how to go about opening them. I’d love to try them someday, it’s on my bucket list! LOL! Love your pictures, as always. I’m playing again this week too!

Love the little urchins. Ours are more of a darker purple here on the Gulf Coast.
Coast Rat said,
What interesting little spikey things! COOL!
Sandcastle Momma said,
Very colorful! Like Dani said we only see the darker purple ones down here. I hear they’re very tasty but they just don’t look that appetizing to me LOL

Now, why would anyone think this little guy was edible??
Sara Chapman in Seattle, USA said,
I want to know who was the brave person who first tried to eat these things. Somehow you made him (her?) look so cute!
Tranquility said,
Such an interesting animal.
Beautiful photos!
Dew Drops said,

reminds me of ME in the mirror in the morning. Except I have a face.
Jama said,
Sea urchins are edible, some people eat them raw! I don’t know how it taste like since I never taste them!
sorry I posted 2 links because the first url doesn’t work.
Martha said,
What a cute little creature!
Hey, what did one sea urchin say to the other sea urchin?
Oh never mind, I don’t think sea urchins can talk
Dawn said,
It is rather cute. I am sure it isn’t aware of that though; no chance of it getting a big head
. I didn’t sign up but I have a macro photo up on Monday’s post by chance.
