User's notes

Unsure what the identification is but possibly a Beachworm, fam Onuphidae. It was sighted as the tide went out, in a pool of water about 75mm deep, so the images taken from above the water are not the best. The head end is to the left in all of the images. The first image shows the worm as initially sighted before it slowly withdrew backwards into a burrow in the sand, final image.
