Yorkshire megafauna. For someone who grew up in a Yorkshire city with a *whaling museum* full of skeletons, harpoons and blubber cauldrons, having Humpbacks and Minkes back along the coast in such numbers is awesome. The shallow, rich North Sea must've once been teeming with whales.
Incredible trip out of Staithes with Yorkshire Coast Nature. Awesome views of 2 Humpbacks, c100 Minke Whales. 30+Sooty Shearwater. 3 Black Terns, 1 x Manx, 5 Arctic and 3 Bonxies. Massive thanks to guide Mark Pearson and skipper Sean for the sheer joy, passion and love of it all! what a trip!

I had a wonderful day out at the Open Cockpit Day at Yorkshire Air Museum for H's birthday, and my plucky 15-year-old was in his element. 😍

Evidence of women and girls within #Roman forts include items such as earrings, and hairpins similar to those in this bun of hair - the only preserved remains of a girl buried in a lead-lined coffin filled with liquid plaster.
