Bonjour
Voici une photo prise en Corse au printemps à Girolata. Ces sortes d'"ovnis" ont une petite voile et sont poussés par la brise jusqu'au rivage. La taille est de 5 cm maximum.On dirait du plastique souple. Merci de me répondre.J'espère ne pas avoir fait d'erreur en ajoutant la photo!

Original post English translation:

"Hello

Here a photo taken in Corsica in spring with Girolata. The species "ovnis" have a small sail and are pushed by the breeze to the shore.

The size is of 5 cm maximum. Some say they look like flexible plastic. Thank for your response. I hope not to have made an error by adding the photograph!"

That is very cool, thanks for the translation as I would have no idea what was being said.

Those look like Porteguese Man-o-war to me..I may be wrong though, That's just a guess:)
