CommentOne can only guess who made all the holes in the beach. I watched this Oyster Catcher for some time sticking his beak into the sand and every so often would have a worm. I think he may have been a little tired of the effort in getting the worm and proceeded to the dunes where he found a snail and promptly took it to the beach water to wash it before devouring it.
