  • Endangered sea turtles struggle ashore on Juno Beach, north of Palm Beach, Florida, to lay their eggs in the soft sands, impaired by the shore lighting that can scare them away.  Worse, when the baby turtles hatch they often become confused by the lighting and turn away from the sea, making them easy prey for predators.

  • The islands of Orkney Scotland sprawl across the North Sea, a convoluted combination of low land, beaches, and tidal flats which are in constant flux. The seas between the islands is generally very shallow so that the actual landscape of the Neolithic era may well have been much different, depending on the rapidly rising sea level. For the last five thousand years they have remained in motion, their outlines changing decade by decade.

  • Views of the Rackwick Valley on the west coast of Hoy.  This valley was one of the first to be settled by Norse incomers (Vikings) and was for centuries a properous community in an idyllic setting.  Now it is largely abandoned but has lost none of its scenic appeal.  Only one crofter still farms here but others have come to convert old croft houses into summer cottages, including the composer Sir Peter Maxwell Davies.  These views look over some of the ruined croft houses and other views look down on a small seaside cottage with the cliffs and beach beyond.g

<br />
Cerbera manghas (Apocynaceae) – pink-eyed cerbera, sea mango; native from the Seychelles to the Pacific – drift fruit; commonly found as flotsam on beaches in the Indian and Pacific Ocean. After the outer skin of the fruit has rotten away, the cage of woody vascular bundles enclosing a massive corky mesocarp with large intercellular air-spaces that affords the fruit excellent and long-lasting buoyancy in sea water; length of fruit: 9cm. <br />
Wikipedia: The leaves and the fruits contain the potent cardiac glycoside cerberin, which is extremely poisonous if ingested. People in olden times used the sap of the tree as a poison for animal hunting. The fruit was reportedly eaten to commit suicide in the Marquesas Islands. Because of its deadly poisonous seeds, the genus name is coming from Cerberus, the hell dog from the Greek mythology, hence indicating the toxicity of the seeds. In Madagascar, the seeds were used in sentence rituals to poison kings and queens
