Now that I think on it, there is a wee bit of the newbie on I&T already, see the sentence under "In case I forget who I am..." And, of course, I've accidentally nested them, so might not be able to extricate one from the other anyway. Yay, go me!Imperfect and Tensehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07348507012722069785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7802716903254015310.post-65030620267298863292013-12-20T16:58:48.141+00:002013-12-20T16:58:48.141+00:00I presume you'll be telling us about your new ...I presume you'll be telling us about your new blog (& how one can access it) here at the I&T?biobabblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15081382623906668057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7802716903254015310.post-47968702008389143812013-12-20T16:04:14.774+00:002013-12-20T16:04:14.774+00:00Katie, it is a bit special, eh?

There is at least one brackish loch, Stenness, which is adjacent to the the Ring of Brodgar. Probably more of that in future too. There is a great deal of archaeology on Orkney, from the Neolithic through Pictish to Viking times. Plus quite a bit of military stuff from two World Wars. I may mention the odd lump or bump and standing stone in the coming weeks and months!<br /><br />Re the blog name, I have actually set up a totally new blog, but I haven't got the heart to de-activate I&T, so it will remain. There may be the odd tweak here or there, and possibly a gradual assimilation of old and new, but nothing definite and certainly not in a hurry. Your preference is noted, lady! That's me told :o)Imperfect and Tensehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07348507012722069785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7802716903254015310.post-62059147712427158522013-12-20T13:34:54.634+00:002013-12-20T13:34:54.634+00:00What a great view!

The full moon was the 17th, and probably the couple days since moved the nighttime highest tide late enough for you to catch it while doing breakfast dishes. Maybe you've been too busy to catch the daytime high tide? Out of curiosity, are lochs freshwater or brackish? Interesting to learn about Ring of Brodgar, I never heard of it before. Sorry to say, living by the ocean myself, you'd better get used to the wind. This is really fun to read about your new adventures. I'm glad you're keeping your blog name.Katie (Nature ID)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17730655720390625839noreply@blogger.com
