… well that’s what they always say: a couple more Brittany pictures.

As I said before, Brittany does mist really well. This is over \u00c3\u2030tang de Kerloquet, near the main alignment of standing stones.

\nThe shells of Plage du Men-Du. Those little paired ones on the right are cockles – which must be extremely common given the number of locals out hunting them at low tide by raking through the sand – with rakes, hands or anything else handy. A friendly cockler explained to me that by law you can’t take ones smaller than 3cm across, and that as long as they are closed they are safe to eat. <\/p>\n

I tried it out for myself and in a minute or so found a couple. I let them go though, being an Anglo softie. They expel little gusts of water from their shells to bury themselves back in the sand.<\/p>\n

The big triangle in the centre is a very bleached oyster shell – there are lots of “wild” ones growing on the rocks. (Also being harvested by the locals.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
