Listened BBC Radio Scotland - Scotland Outdoors, Treachery, Sex and Death - The Fascinating World of Rock Pools with Adam Nicolson from BBC
Mark Stephen visits author Adam Nicolson's homemade rock pools on the Morvern Peninsula.

Really enjoyed this one. Some amazing stories of crab sex & the shorey shore-thing. I was left wondering why Adam Nicolson made rock pools rather than observe pre existing ones? I think I might get the book, The Sea is Not Made of Water: Life Between the Tides.

Forth & Clyde Canal

A walk along the canal, east of Anniesland. Beautiful day, water really clear could see roach. Masses of flowers & bees. A couple of ravens on the gasometer. A sparrowhawk flew close to the surface & edge before flipping up, over the path & through the trees. A paraket too.
