The brown shrimp blends perfectly with its seabed home and is found all around the coasts of the UK.

This worm builds its own home out of bits of shell and sand. It can be spotted on the shore all around the UK.

The wasp spider is a great mimic - looking just like a common wasp keeps it safe from predators, even though it is not dangerous itself. It can be found in southern England, but is spreading north…
