A great weekend spent at the Porcupine Marine conference in the company of interesting & knowledgeable folk. Listening to & talking about many aspects of marine life. There was also the opportunity to explore some rock pools…

Yesterday Porcupines could be spotted on the shores of Kimmeridge Bay, Studland Bay and Poole Quay. This afternoon we share some of the findings

What joy, thank you Dr Fiona Gell
Appropriately enough, it arrived while I was away immersed in Cornish rock pools that had been revealed by the recent equinoctial spring tides. I think I may have to add the Isle of Man to my list of ‘shores-to-visit’
