A rare sighting of the little known Australian Rusty Sand Shark swimming along the beach....
A small piece of the Allenwood Cargo ship which was wrecked on Birdie Beach in 1951. The wreck is mostly covered with sand, but small pieces were uncovered after recent storms.

“I am forever walking upon these shores,
Betwixt the sand and the foam,
The high tide will erase my foot prints,
And the wind will blow away the foam,
But the sea and the shore will remain forever.”
― Kahlil Gibran
Natural colour of the sand patterns from yesterday morning. You can see the lighter areas where the sand is drying.

Enjoy your new week my friends!
Dunes have always fascinated me because of their textures and geometries, colours and contrasts. They are mobile, forming and reforming and it's just never the same when you get there. They are like waves in water, just much much slower. An then there is life, little grasses and little flowers or bones. Well, step back from the image and discover the track of a tinny creepy crawler. I find it amazing how it stands out.

Black grains from the basalt rock are carried down to the beach in streams that mix with the white sands leaving a variety of patterns. I call it art
By the way this is totally naturally formed. I didn't touch it at all. It was just formed by the movement of the sand and the motion of the water
The sand lizard, seen in the forest :)
The sand lizard (Lacerta agilis) is a lacertid lizard distributed across most of Europe and eastwards to Mongolia. It does not occur in the Iberian peninsula or European Turkey.
As juveniles they are usually brown with two light brown lines on the top of the flanks, on the flanks they have light spots bordered by a dark colour. Male adults are usually green on the flanks and a brownish back with smaller black markings and lighter scales inside of these black markings, the tail is brown and hind limbs also. Females are more brown, on the flanks they have various dark markings also with a lighter dot or two inside of this dark patch. Sand Lizards can reach up to 25 cm (10 in) in length. This species can be found in a wide range of habitat types including meadows, heathland, coastal dunes, grassland, steppe, subalpine and alpine meadows, shrubland, hedgerows, open woodland, in alpine areas, traditionally managed agricultural land and rural gardens. It appears after hibernation in March in the North, in March - April in the South and at mountains.

Jaszczurka zwinka spotkana w lesie :)
Jaszczurka zwinka (Lacerta agilis) – gatunek jaszczurki z rodziny jaszczurek właściwych. Występuje na większości kontynentu europejskiego poza jego południowymi krańcami. Na zachodzie granicą jej zasięgu jest środkowa Francja. Na północy spotkać ją można nawet w centrum Półwyspu Skandynawskiego. Jej wschodnie siedliska sięgają po środkową Rosję. Występuje również w Turcji i zachodniej Azji. Zwinka preferuje siedliska nizinne. Najczęściej można ją spotkać w niskiej trawie, wygrzewającą się w słońcu. Jest bardzo ciepłolubna. Maksymalna długość ciała w Polsce dochodzi do 25 cm. Samca można odróżnić od samicy po tym, że ma on zielonkawe podbrzusze, czasem nakrapiane drobnymi plamkami, zaś samica ma szary lub kremowy spód ciała. W okresie godowym, czyli w maju, samce przybierają intensywną zieloną barwę. Młode zwinki po wykluciu się, podobnie jak młode innych jaszczurek, są znacznie ciemniejsze niż osobniki dorosłe. Jej ogon jest nieco dłuższy od tułowia. W sytuacji zagrożenia zostaje odrzucony jako przynęta dla drapieżnika. Z czasem odrasta do pierwotnej długości.
This was taken in the winter after the tide had gone out. The shadow lines are coming from an erosion fence.

This is the large " Black Rock " where Black Rock Sands get's its name from !
This is an open beach with fine sands.
The name comes from the area to the West of the beach dominated by a large, multi-coloured headland Rock, low-tide caves and Rock pools, with an area rich in marine life.
