It was a fairly typical day at Oswald. Overcast, people surfing, and people with their dogs. The afternoon was busy with tourists, but as it got later in the day, there were mostly surfers left at the beach. The only things of interest to note was a large of amount of pine needles in the drift zone and one person brought their pet hedgehog with them to the beach!
