The Guernsey Biological Records Centre has recently been presented with a magnificent collection of over 500 digital photos, of local marine life and seabirds by R.J. Cave ARPS and M. Cave ARPS. We are very grateful for these. Here a few of the pictures, all reduced to 300 pixels wide, but even these miniatures show the quality of what we have received.
