EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this fascinating snapshot captured by wildlife photographer Steve Trewhella, we witness an extraordinary gathering of Goose Barnacles and Buoy Barnacles on a picturesque beach in Bude, Cornwall. These quirky crustaceans have hitched a ride on a feather that washed ashore, turning it into the hottest hangout spot for marine invertebrates! It's like witnessing the ultimate barnacle block party! The Goose Barnacles (Lepas pectinata) and Buoy Barnacles (Dosima fascicularis) have formed their own exclusive club right here on the Cornish coast. With their unique shapes and vibrant colors, they create an enchanting spectacle against the backdrop of autumnal hues. As if straight out of a whimsical fairy tale, these adventurous creatures seem to be enjoying every moment of their impromptu beach escapade. They cling tightly to the feather with their long stalks while flaunting their intricate shells like fashion-forward trendsetters. This photo is not just about nature; it's about community and camaraderie among even the tiniest inhabitants of our planet. It reminds us that sometimes unexpected friendships can form in the most unlikely places – even between barnacles and feathers!
