SEA LIFE SPOTLIGHT: THORNBACK RAY

SEA LIFE SPOTLIGHT: THORNBACK RAY

󠁧󠁢SEA LIFE SPOTLIGHT: THORNBACK RAY󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thornback rays are found all over the British coasts, especially in Scottish Lochs (most commonly in Loch Long and Loch Fyne!)

Easily spotted by their distinctive diamond shaped body, blotchy brown/grey back and collection of 'thorns' on its back and tail. The Thornback Ray buries itself in the sediment during the day and comes out at dusk to hunt crustaceans and small fish!
