Rockpool School

@Seeder_Wood Sorry just seen this! Looks like egg mass from the Lug worm, Arenicola Marina 😊

@Rockpoolschool1 Hey Rockpool school… could you help with an ID for these jelly like assumed ‘egg cases’ found on Whitmore Bay beach (Barry Island) today please? 🙏🏻

URANIUM MILK GLASS!! 💡 I’ll write a more detailed post in a bit I just got excited and wanted to share one of my bucket list finds with you all!!! 😆 It’s a first for me! This year is crazy for beach finds!!! #uranium #milkglass #beachfinds #northumberland #marinebiologist

LOOK WHAT THE SEA GAVE ME THIS TIME 💀 🩵 This has to be my favourite artificial beach find so far!! That’s a bit of sea-glass and a half!! Was not expecting this one! I honestly thought it was a ball until I picked it up, no words 😶 #seaglass #skull #beachcombing #whitleybay

PLEASE WELCOME STRAWBERRY 🍓 👋🏼 So this little fella has been with us a little while now, actually the same time we got our Red Apple Crabs, but he was extremely shy so he has been behind the scenes until now!! #landhermitcrab #hermitcrab #crustacean #crab #shell #strawberry

Not a city girl at all but my goodness it was beautiful last night at the London Royal Docks/River Thames!! Could have sat and watched the planes go over all night ✈️ 🌇 🛥️ #riverthameslondon #london #LondonDocklands #riverthames

Such a super calm (and super dark) little night tonight for our grown ups evening rockpooling! 🔦 🌚 Lovely to meet you all and thank you for coming 😊🦀 #rockpooling #grownups #evening #marinebiologist #alwayslearning

Super chilled little night tonight for our grown ups evening rockpooling! 🔦 🌚 The animals were definitely playing hide and seek tonight but we found them 😂😂 Looking forward to doing it all again tomorrow 😊🦀 #rockpooling #grownups #evening #marinebiologist #alwayslearning

So very proud of this little fella right now!! We’ve had molt from one of our Red Apple Crabs, such an extremely stressful time for crustaceans!!! So it’s always lovely to see when they come out the other side bigger and more beautiful than ever!! #crab #crustacean #molt #red

Saying its International ‘Talk like a Pirate Day' I thought I'd give a huge shout out to our very own 'Gavin McCrabbin' 🏴‍☠️🦀 We really do appreciate you here at Rockpool School 🏴‍☠️ #otherhalf #rockpooling #pirates #weappreciateyou

The most delightful evening with the most delightful ladies at Blyth West Women's Institute - WI tonight!! Honestly had such a lovely evening with you all thank you 😊🦀 #womensinstitute #blyth #ladiesonly #marinebiologist #marinebiology #northumberland @WomensInstitute

Whilst in Teeside last week we also found some fabulous fossils!! #fossils #fossilhunting #scallop #bivalve #gryphaea #devilstoenails #trilobites #arthropod #ammonite #mollusc #coral #crinoid #teesside

ITS THE EYES!!!! Yep not only do the eyes give away this super well camouflaged Velvet Swimming Crab, but also a wee little waring as to how delightfully grumpy these little darlings are! #camouflage #velvet #swimming #crab #crustacean #teeside #rockpool #rockpooling

A fantastic spot of afternoon rockpooling and luckily the weather held out right until the very end!! 🌧️ Thanks for joing us everyone 😊🦀 #saturday #itstheweekend #familytime #familyfriendly #rockpooling #Cullercoats #northtyneside #echinoderm #mollusc #crustacean
