Creatures

Living by the sea I’m lucky to do part of my daily walks on the beach where there’s always plenty to discover.

Like this jellyfish. So fascinating yet so hated!

Another day I spot the remains of a monkfish, not a pretty sight…

…and yet another fish-of-the-day, an eel-like creature. I’m sure I’ll be put right about this!


And howzabout our crabbie friend?

One day Tine found a beautiful starfish, sadly past its sell-by date…

…and finally a crocodile on the beach. Oh, it’s made of sand you say.

Look carefully and you might spot one of our many lizards, basking in the hot sun on an artichoke leaf

It’s closing-the-shutters time after dark but who’s this lurking in the shadows? It’s Mr Toad of course.

Just recently we had an extra guest in the house, obviously making its way inside whilst doors were open to allow some cool air in. We eventually captured the adult hedgehog, nicely rolled up into a prickly ball and placed in the bottom of a bucket for transferral back to the garden.
