Thousands of mysterious balls swamp beach

Thousands of "grass balls" have washed up along the north end of Oreti Beach, near Invercargill in New Zealand.



Environment Southland senior manager natural hazards Dallas Bradley said the balls were not an uncommon occurrence at the beach.



He said his best guess was that they could be eroded marram grass that has been washed out to sea.



"I think the marram grass gets rolled around in the water."
