Light color on North Wall

Had to go look why the lighter area was there

(periwinkles& limpets )

 

 

Turns out the Perwinkles are keeping the area cleared of scum (diatoms??) --- but they will not stray too far from the crack where they can hide or get away from fish(?) browsers

 

Of course the limpets are here too – though concentrated lower down—close to the V in image 

 

 

 

Moving in closer

The scum (diatoms) missing along the crack – being grazed as enlargement of part of image left shows – below

 

 

Lots of limpet at lower part – they too seem to avoid going into black area while tide out

 

Limpet close u[

Perwinkle got hauled away by mistake – had to hold onto something

 

 

Tectura persona???

Apex is off center and sides are ‘convex’ – not straight ----
