Known as the ‘Mirrie’ or ‘merry’ dancers across Orkney and Shetland, the #AuroraBorealis danced across the sky in the Uk last night! Were you lucky enough to see them?

⬇️Please report any sightings of slipper limpets! They smother seabed species and alter seabed habitat dramatically, competing for food & space with mussels & oysters, as well as fouling commercially important species & man-made structures and equipment. irecord.org.uk/
Slipper limpet is a high impact invasive species that can establish in large numbers in sheltered bays and estuaries. There have been recent reports of its presence in Scotland.

When you f&ck up the setting but still get a cool shot. This is what a #baskingshark swim past looks like in timelapse mode. Swim trips can be hectic with getting gear, people, boat in the right place. TOP TIP - don't forget to check the camera too! DOH!
What a perfect way to spend an afternoon!
