Underwater Love

Took the grapple out to Inverkeithing today and added a few expected plants to the yearlist (terrestrial). However, I also dragged out some waterweed, which proved to be Nuttall's. Fearing that I had actually only ever seen Nuttall's I trawled back through iRecord. Hooray! Cullaloe does seem to have actual E.canadiensis.

Inverkeithing - E.nuttallii, recurved and narrow

Cullaloe - E.canadiensis, straight and fat

(edit: this is Curly Waterweed, Lagarosiphona major)

  1. I was wondering what to aim for on my next days off, think I may take the grapnel to some water and see what I can find.

    Also...is this a music vid I see before me? Fantastic!
