Week 6, Day 29 'Nature'

Unfortunately today I did not dive due to the lack to time and problems with some of the equipment. However the weather was nice and I had a chance to walk around deck. Throughout my time here at the underwater centre I have noticed a lot of empty muscle shells scattered around the pier and the vessels.

After closer inspection and a little waiting I realised here the where coming from. The local sea gulls are swooping down during low tide and taking muscles from the pier legs. Then they fly high with them and dropping them onto the concrete pier / steel vessels to crack them open and eat them. This is truly amazing and reminded me a lot of a David Attenborough video.
