The Colorado Lagoon is a great place to spend a summer day. Recently, naturalists Dean, Graves, and Roy observed dozens of stingrays within inches of the shore! Moon jellies are another popular attraction at the lagoon. When the moon jelly feeds, the area by the gonads will take on the color of its prey. These jellies also do not have stingers so feel free to frolick in the water.
