It had an approximated wingspan of a large pigeon. His snout was leaf shaped. But not like those leaves as a standing plume. Was more bent backwards, following the skull shape.

Resembled pieces of jelly in the sand, but when I poked it with my flip flops they emitted bright lines along the body rhythmically in response to the stimulus. Found six specimens, with more or less the same size. It was a full moon and low tide night.
