A Vertipool at Sandown Bay Science Beach.
Nature’s ecological engineers and bio-architects show what’s possible one of our artificial habitat units. Our world is never complete until nature works its magic as a finishing touch. This photograph shows one of our Vertipools with a truly bioreceptive skin made not by our team but by a colonising crowd of creative crustaceans, namely barnacles.
What’s not to love about the head gluing, leg waving, sessile barnacle we ask you?
