Eudistylia vancouveri - Feather duster worm or Northern feather duster worm or Parchment tube worm or Plume worm
Sea ???, Hidden Cove Park, Bainbridge Island, Washington, USA
Circles in the sand are from drops of water falling off its tubular limbs. Found it: Eudistylia vancouveri.
These worms are quite common on the pilings and rocks during low tide exposure times. Inside of the tube, a colorful (usually red) worm lifts. Googing the worm's name Eudistylia vancouveri will give you wonderful pictures of what they look like when filter feeding.
