    Default little stars

    Saw about 4-8 TINY starfish on my glass this afternoon. Had to get a magnifying glass to tell that they weren't little white dots or pods. They had mostly 6 legs but a few had 5 and one 8. Very white/translucent. Anybody have any ideas what they might be? Too small for pics.

    Most likely acro starts are brittle stars... given the 6 legs probably acro stars... they are pretty harmless in smaller numbers.
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.
