Southend Trip Success


After a successful day at Sea-life Adventure Southend, we are going to upload the photos and videos to the wiki! The centre has a variety of tropical and local fish species. We found out lots about all the species which will help us improve pages on the wiki. Also we saw a shark feed and went to lots of the talks held my members of staff.

Because of all of this over the next few days, photos, videos and information will be added to a variety of marine life pages.

Wiki Updates Late March

This week we have started to add updated versions of current photos on The Wiki. This is because they are of better quality and resolution and as they carry a copyright to them as well! More Distribution Maps and more articles on a variety of animals and plants!

Soon we will be adding a life cycle diagram or anatomy diagram for certain animals, mostly insects!

So keep and eye out for changes coming soon!

Youtube and Wiki Updates

YouTube

To visit our YouTube channel click here.

Over the next few weeks we will be uploading videos of British Wildlife for our new series British Wildlife Clips. These videos will also be on the corresponding page on The British Wildlife Wiki. In addition to these videos we are also going to be filming the second half of our 200 subscribers Special. The first half was filmed a fortnight ago and we may even have to go into 3 parts, depending on the weather conditions.

The aim is to catch 100lb worth of fish, as when we first got 100 we caught 100 animals in a day! But this was int he summer, and is its that late winter-early spring time we have decided to just catch at least 100lb.

The first part of this special will be uploaded shortly and the second part will be uploaded next week. A bloopers special has already been uploaded and im sure many more are to follow!
