Question

Where do perwinkles go in the winter months???

Answer 1

Common Periwinkle

Common periwinkles are cold-blooded invertebrates that make their homes along the inter-tidal zone in dime- to quarter-size round shells. They move about there using muscular feet and earn a living grazing on algae and diatoms. Air and water temperatures dictate the periwinkles' levels of activity.

Mother Nature has also told the periwinkles along the rocky coast they can best survive winter's traditional cold and turbulence by bunching up in rocky crevices and on the sides of sheltered rocks at the low-tide mark. The cold usually lulls most of these animals into dormancy. Rising temperatures in the spring get them crawling to the mid- and upper-tidal zones, where they summer in tidal pools and on bare and seaweed-covered rocks.
