    Peacock Worm Tubes, when the tide is in they have arms that filter the plankton.

    Limpets return to the same place before the tide goes out.

        what a fascinating shoreline escapade this evening,
        thank you for sharing with us. Never knew that limpets went back and forth like that. Bit like regular City commuters...:heehee:. Do they ever squabble over whose place it is?

                    I've been there at low tide, must have been only a few metres from where that youtube clip was taken.
