The Wadden Sea - a photo on Flickriver

The Wadden Sea

            A closer view at the Wadden Sea during low tide. Then you can see the sand art created by lugworms. 

""The lugworm or sandworm (Arenicola marina) is a large marine worm. They are not typically visible, but the casts produced by their burrowing make distinctive patterns in damp sand.

A singing lugworm figures in 'The Man Who Dreamed of Faeryland' by William Butler Yeats:

'But while he passed before a plashy place,
A lug-worm with its grey and muddy mouth
Sang that somewhere to north or west or south
There dwelt a gay, exulting, gentle race
Under the golden or the silver skies.'


The Wadden Sea (Dutch: Waddenzee, German: Wattenmeer, Low German: Wattensee or Waddenzee, Danish: Vadehavet, West Frisian: Waadsee, North Frisian: di Heef) is an intertidal zone in the southeastern part of the North Sea. 
It lies between the coast of northwestern continental Europe and the range of Frisian Islands, forming a shallow body of water with tidal flats and wetlands. It is rich in biological diversity. 
In 2009, the Dutch and German parts of the Wadden Sea were inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List and the Danish part was added in June 2014.""
