Newcomers to the Thistlewood

Arrivals

The Thistlewood welcomed several newcomers this week. First among them, Pinchsnap Crab, who arrived sideways (as is only proper) and immediately began reorganising the rock pools to his liking.

Introductions

Roarwell Sea Lion has claimed the warmest rock and shows no intention of surrendering it. Thimble Turtle is small, unhurried, and already widely agreed to be the most sensible among them. Your correspondent, Strutton Pigeon, remains unimpressed but present.

We extend the usual welcome: mind the tide, and do introduce yourselves.
