A well-marked adult PACIFIC DIVER still retaining some breeding plumage was present on Carnsew Basin, at the east end of the Hayle Estuary (Cornwall) throughout much of this afternoon. In near gale force winds, the bird was very mobile and diving continuously and flew on several occasions. At around 1500 hours, it took to the air again and flew off in the direction of Carbis Bay and the mouth of the...

One of the joys of food blogging is the contact that I sometimes get to have with some of you! I recently had a wonderful email exchange with a reader named Jim. Jim is from Cornwall, England, the birthplace of Cornish pasties--a meat pie traditionally filled with cubed beef, potatoes, turnips (or rutabaga), and onions. I was able to ask Jim about pasties and he told me that his mother made them "perhaps...

When I was a little girl we spent our family holidays in Carnoustie, Scotland. My favourite activity was looking for cowrie shells. Sometimes we would have a little competition of who could find the most. I think the most I found in one day was about 14. This year when we were down in Cornwall I went for a long walk on Hayle beach and to my amazement managed to find two cowries. I believe many many...

The stories of big ocean predators arriving on our British shores are increasing and each one always makes headlines. We're just not used to being conscious of a shark threat so evidence of their existance in the South West is always a bit of a surprise. This story below is from the Telegraph and whilst Thresher sharks patrol deeper water and this one looks to have just washed up, it might just have...

Just read this story about a thresher shark being washed up on Hayle beach in Cornwall. I was near Hayle last year and it isn't the sort of beach you expect to find any large animal washed up on. When I lived in Newquay on the Atlantic coast we used to find large eels washed up a lot and once in near by Watergate bay a huge whale was washed up. By the time we got to see it all that was left was the...

Beastly sorry I haven't had time to reply to comments, but I've had no time. Wednesday we worked from 09:00 to 18:30; yesterday we worked from 08:00 to 18:30; today we work from 08:00 to 15:00 – then I have to drive from Basildon in Essex to Hayle in Cornwall, a midge’s nudger short of 400 miles. I suspect I may not make it in one go and will have to overnight at the caravan and set off...
