Hi everybody,
Just a quick update on Troot in the Shed 2014 so far:
- Stromness Primary: The alevins were successfuly released in the Mill Burn last week.
- Sanday School: The alevins are very healthy and have suffered virtually no loss. The release date in Bea Loch is for 17/03.
- Stronsay School: Same situation as on Sanday with a release in the Meikle Water planned for 12/03.
- St. Andrews Primary: There isn’t much left of the alevins’ yolk-sacs and they should be swimming freely in the Burn of Quoykea by 13/03…
- Papdale Halls of Residence: I’ve just received an update from Mr. Cuddihy and their alevins are doing very well but still have a substantial yolk sac, so the release into the Wideford Burn is probably still a couple of weeks away.
- North Walls School: The alevins are healthy and well looked after – Thanks, Olivia, for letting us know!;-)
- Dounby Primary: The release in the Burn of Hourston is scheduled for week starting 13/03.
All these dates, subject to the whims of the Orcadian weather of course…
We’ll keep you posted on the future developments…
Mr P.
