Bits of MV Yewglen wedged and jammed into the Little Rock
A young and undecorated Decorator Crab, or technically a Long Legged Spider Crab (Macropodia rostrata) loads of em on SS Glanmire on weekend on 1st April.
A Northern Prawn (Padalus borealis) sitting on a Dead-mans finger (Alcyonium digitatum), when you slow down and l-o-o-k there are loads of these prawns all over the sites.
There is still some ordanance at the stern end so don't go banging things!!!
These fry were hiding close to the surface, I think that they were baby cod (Gadus mordua) but at that size all I can say is that they were of that genus!
A turbine or part thereof or a focussing arrangement from a search-light?
This is a section of hull, you can kinda see that the inside of the hull is on the bottom and comprises of a mesh of flat wooden sections, the actual hull is face up and looks like what it is....flat steel
Ahhhh, bollards! Well at least this is an identifiable lump in the middle of the wreckage
A grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) the reason loads of divers visit the islands, against a back drop of The Hopper
There are more and more Bull Huss (Scyliorhinus stellaris) in the area and this one was relatively lively and wouldn't let me get close for a photograph.
Looking along the wreckage of the Mistley, you can see the ribs or joints on the bottom.
Keel again.
Lost fishing net, at least its not monofilament drift or tangle net!
