There will be some birds on here soon, I promise! The combination of weather and business has precluded any trips out recently, hence all the astronomy - I can 'do' that from the back garden!
Meanwhile: when I turned on the lights in our marine nano-tank yesterday, there was a huge (well: 4cm) lilac-coloured crab perched on the front of the reef! Now we didn't put it in the tank, so can only assume it came in as a larva or small adult with a new coral at some point. Years ago, when he had a massive five foot tank, we occasionally got nasty Mantis Shrimps in the same way: let's hope this latest crustacean is less destructive that they were!
