13_Oct_09 Natural Selection

Moray

On the beach at Findhorn,
each one of these pebbles was selected by the tide
to fit exactly in the space between the post and the rail of the groyne.
Too big and it it wouldn't slot in ....too small and it would just be
washed out again on the next tide....it makes you stop and think for a moment!!
