October, beach mid morning today.....

Post by KevinB »

Hi All, Had two and a half hours out this morning on a beach I had`nt been to for a while. Beach deserted, fantastic and short sleeve shirt weather.....Ended up with a few coins plenty of little bits of junk and no hole was a mission, makes a change!...Any idea what the little fella is? Many alive and scattered along the waters edge....Good luck..... [81/]

The critter is a sea slug. They often get washed up during storms. I've returned several stranded dogfish to the sea over the lates storms. [81/]

Definitely the mouse not the slug! Ain't nature mad...... No-one would or even could design such a crazy critter! https://www.marlin.ac.uk/species/detail/1697
Lovely thing to see. Thanks for sharing.
Good amount of coins too [81/]

Best wishes to all, as ever....
