Oh I love things like this: beach combing is my favourite pastime. If you check out Newbiggin by the Sea dolphin watch on Facebook they might be able to tell you more about it. One year thousands of cuttlefish bones were washed up on the shore. I put many of them outside for the birds remembering how my budgie used to have one. If I find anything unusual I ask them.

…on the NE coast of America, where we’re visiting my sister. Having googled we think it could be from a Minke whale, which are seen in the area.*

There was a whole 4 foot-ish section of backbone washed up - partly covered with gunk - this was one of a few separate vertebrae so I took one to show the Gdcs at home.

*there are also Great White sharks - graphic warning signs up at a beach where we’ve swum in the past ? - but we thought this vertebra looked a lot more mammalian than fishy, so to speak.
