Beach finds
The other day we went to the beach. In summer time we hardly find sea urchins but our main mission was driftwood so I can make new boats and other home decor :)
We had some good finds, also some pieces of fishing nets and the most curious were bones.
We have no idea what this animal was, it is a partial skull and is missing its jaws therefor hard to identify plus the fact that we are no expert in the subject.
It reminds us of a big bird, but most likely is something enterily different because it must be a huge bird if that is the case. We checked online for the skulls of sheep, goats, seals and other animals that could be in the neighborhood but none are close to it, we found the dolphin skull the closest so we are guessing that but please correct us if you are an expert :)
The bones are beautifully cleaned and dried by the sea and the sun.
I also found very close by the skull vertibraes (I think) but they might be of an other animal, we have no idea.
We do know that they super cool :)
