Lobster

It's not just animals on land struggling with the recent weather conditions but ones offshore too.  Over the past few days a mass of sealife has washed ashore in the northwest of the county.  Today Andy and myself searched the beach from The Firs to Thornham Channel and were rewarded with five species of crab, three species of starfish, two species of spider-crab, Lobster and several Squat Lobsters with more yet to identify!
