If you are confounded and befuddled by a plant or animal you have spotted on the seashore or coastline, why not post it on our Facebook Page (@ExploreYourShore) where the combined intellect of the internet can help you to get a positive ID before you send it to us via Seashore Spotter or one of our other surveys. (Please note that we cannot accept records via Facebook – so after you have received your ID – you will still need to send it to us via our web form).
