| Turtle Trail Tuesday Afternoon. |
You probably noticed the change in wind direction. This afternoon it was blowing strong north to south. Angles are important, but today the north wind was accompanied by a smaller surf, so it didn't create much good erosion. The tides were pretty flat now too.
As I recently mentioned there were locations where old layers of sand were barely covered and some older items were being dug.
Today I saw a square nail that was dug and I heard of a piece of pottery that was found. I'm sure there was more in the past few days.
There were at least a half dozen detectorists at one beach just before low tide.
If you compare the above photo with those taken Monday by JamminJack, you'll see that there wasn't much change.
In fact the best location I saw a couple days ago was slightly filled in today. When the wind and angles change, old low spots can fill in while new spots are eroded.

Alberto S. stopped at Turtle Trail yesterday and talked to some other detectorists there that day. He sent the following photo.

The surf will be bigger tomorrow, then a little bit smaller on Thanksgiving.
Notice the wind direction on the above chart shows the wind changing from north to more easterly Wednesday and Thursday.
Happy hunting,
