      That’s great insight. I agree, and it’s a good reminder. Thanks!

Beach Combing

theoutershores

My thoughts and experiences on the exposed outer coast. Lots of photos and a few words about intertidal nature. I’m always thinking about sandy beach connections to its sister ecosystems, the rocky intertidal, estuaries, and coastal forests. You can see photos of things I’ve found washed ashore on my Wrack Line pages. If you are looking for new takes on common intertidal algae, plants, and animals, I’m always updating my Variety of Life pages. I love the full-page layout on all theoutershores’ pages.

On the backshore
A low tide scene from last August
A brush with zonation 
A righteous woolly tuft 
There's a world beyond the Ulva garden 
A brief visit, then go 
A moment of quiet 
Up close with blue mussels 
Something for everyone 
Keeping connections
