We were a little puzzled by this. It can't have been blown up from the shore, because there were only this and one other collection. We thought it might have been whipped up by a spate, but it's a day or two since the spate, and it surely wouldn't have lasted so long? Also, the water is welling up in a spring, or perhaps from a broken drain, and the foam is upstream from the upwelling.
