The Hunstanton and Holme shore today was littered with razor shells, dead crabs and vast amounts of hornwrack following the strong onshore winds of the weekend. Unsuprisingly, it was frequented by a large number of gulls, including an adult Mediterranean Gull wearing a lime green darvic. Amongst the flotsam and jetsam were hundreds of conical sand tubes, made by the Polychaete
Pectinaria koreni.
