The litter items in this image were collected from the small pebble beach by La Valette bathing pools on the morning of Sunday 21 June 2009 before people arrived on the beach. Some of the broken cans had clearly been on the shore or in the sea for sometime. Someone had thrown glass bottles onto the beach where they smashed. This amount of litter represents a significant reduction in litter compared to the collection on 1 June. This reduction may be the result of the BBC's Beach Watch campaign at the beginning of the month. File No. 210609 5717 ©RLLord fishinfo@guernsey.net
I visited the seashore at La Valette during the night of June 10, 2007 to clean the pebble beach of litter left by the summer crowd. During my visit I saw several very fast moving house centipedes, Scutigera coleoptrata, running over and under the pebbles and cobbles on the beach. The centipedes on the pebble beach were too fast to photograph but I saw this individual on the concrete steps leading from the beach to the seawater bathing pools. His body was about 4 cm long and he remained still while I took a number of photos with a Canon digital camera. File No. LaV 100607 639 ©RLLord fishinfo@guernsey.net
The pebble beach by the bathing pools at La Valette on Guernsey's east coast was littered with wooden ice cream sticks on the night of 10 June 2007. I didn't collect the wooden sticks because the sugar remaining on them was being devoured by a horde of sea slaters, Ligia oceanica. Sea slaters are largely nocturnal. I visited the pebble beach from 10 pm to midnight. Sea slaters were running across the pebbles, drinking out of soda cans and yoplait containers, and eating the sugary remains stuck to ice cream sticks.
