  2. This is by far the best time lapse video of limpets grazing at night that I’ve ever had the privilege of viewing. Top stuff. ps: My ancestors used to smuggle brandy into Kimmeridge Bay.

    Just the encouragement I needed. I’ve given in my notice and taken out a second mortgage on the house to devote myself full-time to documenting the secret life of intertidal molluscs

    If you need a research assistant let me know. I have a particular fondness for under boulder fauna diversity!
