Creator Transcript
  • waterfowl [word crossed out] bird regulations take the opposite view + close all species, but about 6, then making provision for open season on certain species. I was amazed to find that there is no statutory protection of any kind for deer or caper [capercaillie] The latter were extinct when the present law was drafted. The other day the warden at one of the Nature Conservancy reserves caught 3 poachers at night with 2 dead stags. There was nothing the men could be charged on except driving at night without lights. This afternoon went to a seminar at the university conducted by Dr C.B. [Colin Bevan] Rees of the Scottish Oceanography Laboratory at Leith. He was talking about the values to be derived from planktonic larvae counts derived from their continuous plankton recorders. The changes in diversity of diff [different] lamellibranch larvae revealed flow patterns on the surface water. It is not known what relation there is between the presence + diversity of these larvae to the presence of adults on the sea floor. In general the concentrations have been drift accumulations from shore areas in the Shetlands + Faroes etc [etcetera]. Much remains to be learned about the relative picture. [Colin Bevan] Rees impresses me as a very good man
