Sand dune day


Woke up at 7:30, went to make lunch in the basement and had breakfast. Today was the sand dune day so we went along to the beach and studied the sand dunes. In order to try and win the beachcomber prize I spotted a traffic cone washed up on the shore which Chris carried around for the rest of the day back to the field centre. We climbed along the dunes and had studdied the dune slack. Here, Johnny made a daisy and buttercup chain necklace for himself while Oli counted the species in the area. After lunch I started getting an awful stomach ache and had to be driven back to the centre. Here I slept for 4 hours until supper. While everyone else went to see the brids on the cliffs I went to do the write-up in the lab.
