A COASTAL NATURE JOURNAL

There is more
at the edge.

Rock, sand, water and the life between. A slower look at the shoreline, without taking a piece of it home.

FROM THE WATERLINE

Three ways of looking.

A patient view from the edge can reveal movement and habitat relationships without lifting rocks or handling animals.

Colour, apparent grain size and visible fragments are useful clues, but a photograph alone is not a mineral identification.

A consistent viewpoint and clear context help distinguish an observation from a dramatic before-and-after story.

THE LONGER VIEW

Follow the journal from individual details to the patterns that connect them.
