Not to be confused with the other kind of chiton
Wow, I must go and slip into something more comfortable....

A lovely article on chitons here -- personal observations and photos from the wonderful Leigh Christina Russell of Dunedin.
Peculiar critters. Although they don't move quickly, they obviously do get around!

the estuary got the sand volcanoes boiling up all over; you can still see their remnants when the tide is low, but I didn’t think that happened on the beach itself?
Yeah -- I'd be hesitant to say the beach shapes were earthquake-related. Sumner beach's always been prone to lagoons and holes. And it's a dynamic beach that can change enormously from year to year.
Great pic of Gudrun's of the mud volcanoes in the Estuary! I know from the liquefaction silt we had in Woolston that when wet it's almost like concrete -- very dense and sticky and virtually unaffected by rainwater. It's not like regular mud which washes away.

This might be a good place to give a shout-out to Chch nature-photographer Jonathan Harrod, whose photos of birds in Travis Wetland I think are particularly wonderful.

Some innovative thinking about a heritage building - the State Trinity Centre.
Please take note, Victoria Matthews.

I just found these creepy images from the recent annular eclipse of the sun. Check it out, crescent-shaped shadows!
Edit: also crescent-shaped points of light

Now you are raising the semitone of the thread….
Or giving in to your bassist desires?

guess I need a good sub(editor).
Not at all, I was just being cheeky ;-)
