Sully Island is a tidal island just off the coast between Penarth and Barry. You can walk across to the island via a causeway that is uncovered for a while either side of low tide (if you are careful!).
I'm perched on some rocks near St Mary's Well Bay - and yes, I did get a wet foot through not paying attention to the incoming tide...
I'm seriously thinking of changing my name to Sean Hudson now..... lol ;-D

Thanks all for putting this into Explore at 397!
The tidal pools at Haystack. I try to be as careful as I can when walking around this eco system, making sure not to touch the rocks or place my tripod near any living creature. Then to look around at all the people climbing on the rocks, taking sea creatures and putting them in bags.. uhg.. makes me want to hurt someone.

Low tide along the Rio Iro in Chiclana de la Frontera, Spain.
Railfreight large logo grey Class 47/3 47350 'Scorpion' had charge of the 6B19 14:15 Exeter Riverside Yard to Cardiff Tidal Sidings general merchandise freight recorded passing Alexandra Dock Junction Yard, Newport.
The loaded OTA wagons of raw timber were for onward delivery to the Shotton Paper Company as part of the trainload contract service that operated at that time.
A product of Brush Falcon Works, D1831 was delivered in April 1965. In due course, the dual green livery was replaced by BR standard blue and then the large logo Railfreight grey as illustrated. It was unofficially named 'Scorpion' in November 1991 when allocated to Tinsley Depot.
In 1999 the locomotive was rebuilt to become Freightliner 57005 and in due course owned by Cotswold Rail and then Advenza Freight until the company ceased trading in late 2009. The locomotive was then aquired by West Coast Railways in 2011 and is stored at Carnforth.

With the spring tides comes a harvest for the small fish living in the water. as the tide cover green plants it washes off the small insects that did not retreat far enough from the rising tide. on the other side of the river seagulls feed on the fishes and other larger insects brought down river and float in the lighter levels at the top where the fresh water meets the incoming tide
The Tidal Basin is a man-made inlet adjacent to the Potomac River in Washington, DC.
The Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial, honoring our first and third president.
Visitors are drawn to the area because of its beauty, especially during cherry blossom season in late March and early April.
Each year people come from across the nation to welcome spring and celebrate the National Cherry Blossom Festival.
Tidal caves have small openings that open when the tide goes out and close off when it comes in. This one was an accidental find. I had to lay on my back and be pushed in the walls were amazing I got off about 10 shots with a flash before having to be pushed out.

The last major Atlantic storm has revealed some new layers in this month. Coupled with the improvement in the local weather I have been clambering over the new areas, more exposures to be posted.

The Yellow Sea, shared by South Korea, China and the DPRK, has an estimated 2 million ha of remaining tidal-flat , and is one of less than 10 regions globally that have “megatidal environments”. As such the Yellow Sea is a globally very rare type of ecosystem, and it forms the core staging area for an estimated 2 million migratory shorebirds in spring and a further 1 million in autumn. This represents no less than 40% of the total number of (long-range) migratory shorebirds supported by the whole East Asian-Australasian Flyway , a wide and long migration corridor stretching from southern New Zealand, through Australia, up through countries of south-east and eastern Asia, through the Yellow Sea, on through eastern Russia as far northeast as the North slope of Alaska.

Within the former German-Soviet Environmental Agreement in the years 1989-1991 3 biological expeditions to the Taymyr peninsula in northernmost Siberia were performed. They laid the ground for the establishment (1993) of the Great Arctic Reserve (Zapovednik). The Taymyr peninsula is covered by the most extensive and northernmost tundra habitats in Siberia. These enormous wetlands are used during the short Arctic summer by millions of waterbirds, which winter in Southern Europe, Southern Asia and Africa. The biodiversity of the Taymyr peninsula is with 20% well covered with different kinds of protected areas. However, there may be need to connect them by South-North corridors to secure adaptation of biodiversity moving North with climate change. With increased warming and thawing of tundra massive release of methane stored in the ground could trigger further climate change.
