Death on the Beach
I love the leisurely strolls on the beaches of Lake Malawi, the Lake of Stars. The spectacular beautiful sunrises, endless clear blue water and scenes of fishermen out in the deep. The sounds of lapping waves and calls of the fish eagles. The cool south-westerly breezes and the smell.
But the beach also reveals the cruelty of death.
Death on the beach!

This crab met a pointed end

Washed up with shells and leaves

One animal’s misfortune in another one’s source of life

crushed to death

cichlids left on the beach

A lone crab claw on the sandy shore

Left to rot

Sandy grave
