Hi
Whilst searching for sea anemones at the very low tide today saw for the second
day running in the same location a male Cyclopterus lumpus part out of water on
its side with its mouth just submerged in the water.With the incoming tide it
just righted itself but remained swimming in the same vacinity.I believe it must
have been protecting its eggs.Length 24 cms.Shallow pool created between the
spokes of an old cartwheel.Location of fish Creeksea on the River Crouch approx
6 miles inland.
