2nd June

Some shots of Scourie Beach (day 6 of the trip). This is a perfect little beach for the natural history enthusiast rather than the beach lounger. It has a wonderful assortment of sand ripples and braids easily seen due to the copious amounts of black sand mixed in with lighter quartz sand. There were good showings of seaweed, worm casts and even the odd echinoderm washed up at low tide. More to come tomorrow.
