Exploring Kinghorn Beach

Our lecturer took us for a "live" scavenger hunt to Kinghorn Beach in Late February where we discovered signs of spring in sea life like the fresh seaweed growth in the second photo. We also used a local land mark rock to measure the tides. In our photo it is clearly visible but when the tide is right in, you can't see it at all. On our Scavenger Hunt, we found: Empty crab, oyster, mussel and razor clam shells as well as other things that are not pictured, like sea glass, whelks, driftwood and sadly, some dead seabirds that had struggled with the recent storms. The last photo is the view from Kinghorn in Fife of Arthur's Seat and parts of the Edinburgh and East Lothian Coast to show how we are connected by our wild waters as well as by the land.
