With the very low Spring tides we did some tidepooling of the South Lighthouse.
We found all sorts of things! High lights are... Henry refound 6 of his famous Little Cushion Stars.
6 Sea Hares, 1 sea slugs Limacia clavigera, 1 Sacoglossa Elyia viridis, a Squat Lobster, Hermit Crabs,
& a Long Clawed Porcelain Crab! we have only found one other but that was dead and in the stomach contents of a cod we caught last year.

The UK's most remote Sports Relief runners on Fair Isle.
They ran about a mile up hill, from the Puff Inn to the School/Hall parking lot.
Henry & Deryk set a fast pace! but wisdom of age gave in to youth. |

Such treasures in the tidal pools; excellent macro shots.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures, the girls were cute weren't they and I loved the shots of Henry's finds, he's got a good eye for detail but he probably gets that from being with you. No doubt you've been pointing things out to him since he's been a small tot so he's picked up on it.
