A -3.1 tide last week drew me to the beach again, where I saw: A juvenile pea crab. Isn't she pretty?
Clam condos.
Most of these holes are occupied by a type of clam called Rough Piddock. They actually dig the holes. The substrate is a combination of peat and clay; my local beach has large formations of this stuff. A pretty red anemone of some type. 
An ochre sea star.
