Look at the smiles! muddy volunteers and some of the Green Shores team after a morning of restoring saltmarsh on the Eden Estuary.
The plants are protected by 2/3 depth buried chestnut fencing, to help them establish.

Alone on the Flats

Volunteers restoring saltmarsh. 4 people are planting out prepared plants on a muddy shore. The tide is out and the sun is shining.

Marsh Gulls

Three gulls, three very different personalities.

#Saltmarsh and the surrounding areas are ripe for extended exploration, adventure, and storytelling. Why stop at the Ghosts of Saltmarsh when you can spin up new adventures filled with peril, mystery, and treasure?

"The UK's saltmarshes are vital "sinks" that lock away climate-warming greenhouse gases in layers of mud, according to a new report from WWF."

Cape May Island Birding by Boat

A spring morning on the saltmarsh, quiet but alive. I joined a small group aboard *The Osprey* for a birding cruise around Cape May Island, camera in hand and eyes open for coastal migrants. It began with a twig and a watchful Osprey, and became a slow, quiet journey into the rhythm of observation.

Dornoch Academy pupils did a great job helping restore saltmarsh at a site on the Dornoch Firth last week.
They used plants grown on in a polytunnel at their school, gradually adapted the grasses to increased salt levels, before they were moved to their outdoor growing site. Green Shores are delighted to be working with them!

¿Os acordáis de que en Saltmarsh nos estábamos pegando con un señor cazador lupino que tenía 3 fases de jefe y ya nos limpiamos el culo con dos? Pues con la tercera nos ha dado para el pelo, pero ahí hemos aguantado, le hemos derrotado y nos lo hemos pasado bien pasándolo mal. Recordad que en D&D los pícaros están hechos de papel de fumar.

Ahora a seguir con la aventura de encontrar a un ser legendario misterioso para resolver ciertos asuntos familiares...
