Pond life


Top left: baby mussel beds
Top right: beadlet anemone
Bottom right: starfish (sadly deceased)
Bottom left: a winkle of some sort but what the little pink things are ... any suggestions?

Wise woman of the west eh? I like that ;)

It's so hard to identify things like that. Could be young goose barnacles maybe? But I'm no expert on their family lives I'm afraid. I'll let you know if I find anything. It manages to look as if the shell is decked out with spring flowers.
Your pictures are lovely, and I've thoroughly enjoyed reading about your walk.

These pictures are fantastic. They look so clear even though it’s through water.
