Responding to Roz: these are just random denizens of this small, local beach. I wandered amongst them taking pictures, even waded a little :-)

Those "tree-like thingies" are actually trees. Each year, after the last winter freeze has melted, at the first minus-low tide, they walk out along the edges of the channel and "plant" these trees to mark the channel; there is a whole long string of them, they are bizarre at extreme low tide.

It is done this way to save money, as it's a very variable channel and its perimeter changes every winter.

Oh how lucky to live near a beach like this. I love seeing all the kids doing their own thing. I feel like I can touch the squishy sand and feel the cool water running over my feet.

What distortion? Don't people normally stretch out when they get into water? Nice little slice of summer.
