Kicking off December with a new series of posts - an advent calendar for anyone who forgot to buy one! An A–Z of Isle of May Fieldwork. Each day I’ll share a little piece of what life and research look like on our tiny island in the Firth of Forth. See thread below 🧵 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

A hectic few days ahead as we wind down one of our trapping grids on the Isle of May. Lucky to be part of such a brilliant team of staff, students, and volunteers who make this project possible.

At least someone is getting some rest… A very calm day on the Isle of May - blue skies and bright winter sun. This pup enjoying an afternoon nap near Main Light.

And we’re off… an incredible first week of our winter season on the Isle of May. First stint has been cut a day short with some bad weather rolling into the Forth, but the work’s in very safe hands - the remaining team still on the island are keeping things running smoothly. See you all next week!

Before the start of our day we have a “scrum” so that everyone on the team knows what to expect from the day and tasks can be assigned and ticked off once complete @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social
