I was, and am, very confused about this insect. I couldn't tell if it was hairy or covered in fluff.

I couldn't get a clear shot of this, as it was small, and my phone camera couldn't pick it out against the bark.

I have no idea what this is. I'd have thought it a worm, but it has fine spikes coming from it. It was found in the upper layer of soil, in my daisy pot plant. I found another (fatter and larger, and grayer in body) burrowed into the base of the plant - eating it from the inside.

In the shallows of the surf. Tide out. The snail was balanced on some shells (I think) and was blowing bubbles in the water.
