In Greek mythology there was a monster called "Hydra". This monstrous/terrible beast was a reptile, like a water snake with many heads. It was venomous, and it could grow two new heads for each one cut off. It was a terrible thing, but it was killed by a Greek hero. In the eighteenth century, a Swedish botanist called a little freshwater animal with many tentacles "Hydra". It can regenerate like the Greek monster. One needs to use a microscope to see it very well. Sometimes there are large groups of marine animals like that all together in a colony. Then you can see them without a microscope. Many of them were blown by the wind onto Portheras Cove beach. Fortunately, these "by the wind sailors" are not venomous.
