Example

Bournemouth beaches produced odd flounder at night with pout, rockling and flatfish at Friars Cliff

Incidentally, some species of flatfish settle on the right side, others on the left, and others on either side

A young flatfish starts life swimming near the surface, and it is symmetrical and vertically flattened just like a herring
