‘Walked from here at South New Brighton to Shag Rock at the Spit. In the area of exposed sand which is the widest quite near Shag Rock, found 1 large SS Larva at 7:50. It can’t have been dug in for very long, perhaps 6:30 to 7:00 am? Thought the colder temperatures coming into Winter had these critters back into the dunes and buried for their over-Wintering. Managed to see the tracks almost right up the beach. Presume it came all the way from the dunes. Found a suitable small plant pot to fill with wet sand to use as a watery home for the big SSL. Saline drip set-up works ok but I have to keep an eye on it as the top reservoir of salt water, is larger than the bottom one at the moment. Garage could end up awash if I forget to check on things. Watched on and off during the day; hasn’t climbed out…….
