EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this whimsical snapshot captured by FLPA/Steve Trewhella, we are transported to the enchanting shores of Kimmeridge in Dorset, England. The star of the show? None other than a Flat Periwinkle (Littorina obtusata) adult, striking a pose on vibrant wrack fronds. As spring breathes life into the coastal landscape, this European beauty emerges from its marine abode to bask in the glory of nature's playground. With its intricate shell and delicate features, our periwinkle friend is an ambassador for all things aquatic and adorable. The Isle of Purbeck serves as a backdrop for this delightful scene - a place where British charm meets Atlantic allure. Here, amidst sandy beaches and rolling waves, these temperate molluscs find solace among their fellow gastropods. But let's not forget about those magnificent fronds! Like leafy umbrellas swaying with the rhythm of the sea breeze, they provide both shelter and sustenance for our little snail companion. And who can resist that touch of seaweed magic? So join us on this virtual beach stroll as we celebrate these marvelous creatures and their idyllic habitat. From seashells to sealife wonders, every inch of this coastline offers glimpses into Mother Nature's artistry. Remember – when life gets hectic or mundane – take inspiration
