Showcasing some photos from Mumbai shoreline for #InverteFest
Chances of sighting an octopus during low tides is pretty high, and tbh I'd never think such a thing would be possible, cause most of the shoreline is really filthy - but its a joy to see one of these every time!

Here's an interesting photograph for #MolluscMonday
A Hoof-shield Limpet.
2nd photo is a zoomed in version of the first one, but I might have managed to photograph a limpet laying eggs.

some more tiny things from the #ShoreWalk.
look at those polyps (flower like structure on the branches)
and at left bottom, there's a gastropod with its syphon out.
the gastropod would be a few mm long.

Here's a scale of how small this slug is!
(kinda hard to focus such tiny thing with a manual lens while trying to balance self on the rocky shore, so one doesn't tumble into a water pool.

Last evening I went to the roof to look for spiders on the mango tree... But I found a ladybug instead.
This morning, while heading out, I finally found a big spider and I'm not sure how I missed it the last few days!

What I thought was a bee sitting on mango flowers, when I was trying to photograph it, turns out is not a weird looking bee but a Lagoon Fly (Eristalinus arvorum)

Some Inverts I came across, that were hard to photograph with my set up and get better photos for ID.
1. A small spider with a body few mm big + breeze made it hard to focus.
2. This hovering - some kind of wasp i think.

A Common Castor Butterfly I came across today as I went for birding (honestly this is going on top of the list to draw, next time i want to draw butterfly, cause of the pattern and texture on the wings)
