Belize Feather duster worms open their feathery
plumage to filter plankton and other microscopic
nourishment
from the ocean. Feather duster worms
are found sprouting from holes in coral heads
like bouquets of flowers.
These worms are
extremely sensitive to movement and will
pull their plumage back into their
protective
tube in a split second if approached but
a fish or diver.
