A big thank you to my friend Carol King for permission to use these photos of an extraordinary sight she witnessed on the Marina di Modica beach the other day. People were just sunbathing or swimming as usual when suddenly this exotic creature appeared and did not appear to be afraid of anyone.
As you can see, it was not fazed by the rope dividing different areas of the beach either and gamely clambered over it. By this time, I'm told, several people had called animal protection organisations so hopefully the wanderer was later checked over and pointed in the right direction We think it had probably got lost or blown off course on the way to or from the nature reserve at Vendicari.

Boy! I've not heard that song in years!
How stunning it would've been to have been there to see that beautiful creature.
Nor had I. Lee! Yes, I wish I'd been there too!
