Escargot: Super Snail Escape!

Lovely Patterns in the Sand
The Wrack or High Tide Line
Beach finds:  A morning walk (no it wasn't early Sunday, mini me needed her sleep) uncovered a number of finds - no words needed except to say at mini me's insistence we didn't photograph the dead pelican (eweeee) and we did throw back the snail which was playing dead until we got back inside (you will see below).
Coral

Crab




Horseshoe Crab

Mangrove Seed & Pen Shell

A fine specimen on the beach

Whoops, Sis heard a funny noise and behold he's alive!!




PS  If you missed the manatees, keep reading below.  Manatees less active than the snail!!

      In May there was a find of 3 live starfish (thrown back) and a shark caught whilst beach fishing. Last week my friend found live a hermit with baby crab living in a shell (also thrown back). So mini me must keep looking (although from her perspective a hermit crab can be quite menacing!).

      No LOL, wonder what Bognor has to share in addition to those lovely photos . . . (although Broadstairs has mainly chalk bits and kelp).

    loving the coral - are you allowed to pick it up and keep it?

    NOT loving the snail - would have been tempted to find a hungry pelican to offer breakfast too!!

    Unfortunately the coral is very smelly, even after bleaching it, so you can pick it up and keep it if you want . . . but I don't.
