Christmas visit to Bullocks Cove

Bullocks Cove, Barrington, RI
The annual post-Christmas dinner walk down to Haines Park and Bullocks Cove. The weather was mild and the water was still and the tide was low. The sun just about to emerge from behind the cloud cover.
Ducks, coots, wigeons, mergansers, scaup, brant, geese, swans...

Always something interesting. From confusing tide marks on pilings
to conch piles and burnt-down port-a-potties.
Why would someone burn down a port-a-potty? Why would someone pile up conchs (still in their shells) in front of it? Is this some kind of RISD art installation?
