What Causes Fluid Filled Blisters On Head After Sunburn?

I'm 14, male, and was recently at the beach two days ago. I've got short militarycut hair and my head was sunburnt I think, everything was fine until I went to sleep yesterday and these chunky, yellow scab-like things appeared on the top of my head, and seem to ooze a clear fluid. What is this?
