    Two Humpback Whales jumping out of the water. Note the fisherman in the foreground taking no notice whatsoever.

    It's a little known fact that ancestors of us humans are closely related to members of the corvus family. Crow-Magnons they were called.

    Not the best picture in the world, but something I've never seen before: Rats digging for winkles on the beach at Shoeburyness. How wonderfully resourceful these animals are. The rats would emerge from the big rocks that had been placed at the top of the beach to break the waves, they'd walk down across the beach and out onto the mudflat. They'd then root around until they had a winkle or two in their mouth at which point they'd bolt back to their hiding place as quickly as they could. I must go back when the weather is nicer and try to get some better pictures.
