Don't call them jellyfish! Portuguese man o war have been washing ashore on Galveston Island in recent weeks in "above average" numbers. The unique creatures are grabbing a lot of attention and ending up on social media platforms. That's where we spotted photos that prompted this story. At first, my photog and I didn't really seem them on the beaches UNTIL we got closer. The greenish bottle-like organisms, which can sting you like jellyfish, were everywhere. It's still unclear why they wash up occasionally in large numbers.
