Fascinating to see geography in action
A large channel has been eroded in #ChesilBeach possibly a result of flooding. The scale of this feature is unusually large, providing a fascinating glimpse into the structure of Chesil Beach. It may naturally heal itself as the sea continues to move the shingle, time will tell.

Today, the paperback edition of 'An Irish Atlantic Rainforest' goes on sale. So far, about 20k copies of the hardback have sold: fantastic for an 'Irish nature book'! We're seeing a real revolution in attitudes towards the natural world in Ireland, and there's NO going back. 🌍
