Excitement is building in anticipation of the Field Course, which begins on Monday. Some of us are finding it hard to go about our daily business without giggling excitedly at the prospect of a day’s rummaging on the rocky shore at Robin Hood’s Bay. If that wasn’t good enough there’s a trip to the sand dunes at Seaton Carew on Wednesday where the botanists amongst us are are going to be in a state of xeorphytic induced utopia.
If you really can’t wait, or if you think it would be good to go pre-informed, then why not look at www.theseashore.org.uk? There are sections on both rocky shore and sand dune ecology, written by the good people at the Field Studies Council (who ought to know their stuff).
If you do notice any unusual behaviour in the Biology staff over the next few days, it is likely a symptom of field-trip-fever. So if you are feeling it too, you’re not alone.
