Fieldwork in Millport - A British marine biologist’s haven!
Rock pooling, tide tracking and sunset strolls! A Scottish adventure for a budding marine biologist. Come read about my time at the picturesque sea town of Millport, where I was fortunate to study local marine wildlife, from sea stars to sea birds, and sea otters to plankton. Each day brought something new—shifting tides revealing hidden worlds in rock pools, field notes filling up with observations, and moments of quiet awe along the shoreline. It was a chance to learn, explore, and reconnect with the coast in a way that only fieldwork can offer.
Utila - An adventure of a lifetime!
A journey into reef life and marine research on the edge of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. Come read about my time on Utila, a small Caribbean island where I conducted my BSc research on damselfish behaviour, diving daily into a world of coral, colour, and constant motion. From early morning descents into the reef to hours spent observing territorial battles unfold beneath the surface, each day revealed something new about the complexity of marine life. It was an immersive experience of discovery, challenge, and awe in one of the most biodiverse marine ecosystems on Earth.
