@louannwarren Not many people know how to get to this part of the beach which is why there are only my footprints there. I walk here quite often and never see a soul.
@julzmaioro No Julia this isn't the camel beach and not camel footprints either, nice try.
@pcoulson Again you are on the same wavelength as Julia, nice try, but the large indentations are bigger than camel tracks. All will be revealed later today.
I would imagine that there would be crabs here - on our beaches it might just be shellfish - like pipis or toheroas. I can see the light footprint (with toes) there on the right - could it just be a barefoot fairy?
@maggiemae Yes plenty of crabs on this beach, especially soldier crabs and sand bubbler crabs. Lots of pipis too. There could have been a barefoot fairy but I didn't see her, just her footprints.
The large indentations aren't made by crabs though I will explain later today what made those holes. Much bigger than crabs.
I've seen your explanation Babs, must be one heck of a lot of 'em round there. I was always terrified of them when I was a kid messing round in the sea. Love the shot, great in b&w.
@golftragic Actually it doesn't take many stingrays to make so many holes, they move about a bit I believe. Luckily they don't get disturbed at this beach because it isn't easy to access and is outside the tourist area so not many people venture down here. It is where my favourite tree is and I will post a photo of that tomorrow.
Not far from our house too, luckily we don't live in the tourist area.
There were a few people injured by stingrays at Fingal Bay last year I believe but that is a tourist spot.
@jamibann Luckily this beach is just down the road from my house.
@dide @flowerfairyann It does look rather other worldly doesn't it.
@wakelys @pusspup Yes, definitely lots going on under the sand.

The tiny holes are left by various crabs other creatures as they burrow beneath the sand before the tide turns. At the bottom right if you look carefully you can see two bare footprints (not mine). The large indentations are made by ……… well all will be revealed later today when I tell you what they are.
