And then there were two...

It's always a sign that autumn is upon us when the Seasonal Ranger leaves us, and it tends to be a little bit of a sad ocassion. This year was sadder than most as Laura has spent three seasons with us; one as a Voluntary Seasonal Ranger for the Marine Reserve and two as a Seasonal Ranger (and being paid!) for the National Nature Reserve. And with the last two years being a time of great upheaval with staff changes for both reserves, it has been especially lucky that Laura has been there with her sunny personality and enormous capability to help us all ride out the storm.

Laura is heading off to Mexico to work on a project to monitor the coral reefs off the coast there, and whilst she would be welcomed back with open arms for a fourth season , I fear that her wanderlust will prevent her coming back.

We both wish her well in her adventures.
