A colony of starfishIt rained last night and the sky was overcast this morning - not very pleasant weather for a voyage to Albaguen, so Daniel suggested going somewhere nearer. I did not understand where he meant to go but agreed all the same.
He took me to the Sandbar - a patch of shallow sandy area between Port Barton and Capsalay that is only visible during low tide. I had seen pictures of it depicted as "an ideal place for a picnic in the middle of sea", which was quite a dramatic scene.
I walked towards the far end of the Sandbar. To my amazement, I discovered a colony of starfish lying under the water. Within the small area of a diameter of 10 m surrounding me, I counted a few dozen starfish! I had only managed to take a few pictures before a shower blurred my view...
When we left at midday, the water level already rose high enough to leave a tiny tip of the Sandbar above water...
