The Mediterranean monk seal - mentioned on my Black Sea pages - is the world’s rarest and most endangered marine mammal.

The Guardian published an article on it on Friday 30 October 2009. You can read it here. It is an interview with Dr Anastasia Miliou, manager and head scientist from Archipelagos Institute of Marine and Environmental Research of the Aegean Sea.

BBC started its new series “Oceans” on BBC 2 at 8pm on November 12. Repeated every Wednesday, eight times.

Don’t forget to look at the Black Sea pages! Has gorgeous pictures!!!! (Did you notice the images of the top of this page? Cool, huh?)

They’re a courtesy (and property!) of Alexander Vershinin, a Russian scientist who won a prestigious prize for all the great stuff he does!

Welcome to my blog. This is my first post here.

I still have a lot of stuff to do, as you can see. The Stonehenge theme picture has little to do with a site that currently talks about the Mariana Trench and the Black Sea, of course! Please be patient…
