Yes, this burrowing anemone prefers more gravelly areas, so it's a little harder to see than some other species that are more common on rocks or in tidepools.
Note the color pattern of this species is highly variable: https://bodegahead.blogspot.com/2021/12/20-for-70.html
Wow! I’ve never seen this stunning sea anemone, and I participated in intertidal surveys in Humboldt County. Thanks for sharing.
