The recent storms have brought a collection of weird and wonderful sea creatures to beaches around North Ayrshire.
Starfish, crabs and amphiura filiformis - also known as brittlefish - have been appearing on Stevenston's shoreline, much to the delight of visitors.
These pics were sent in by a reader in the wake of the weekend's Storm Kathleen.
If any other readers have spotted some fascinating - or just strange - creatures in recent days, let us know.
