Hi there everyone,

There is something pretty special about tiny creatures. Especially the ones that most people don't know about. Myxomycetes (slime moulds) fit that category perfectly, and have captured my attention in the past couple of years. I possibly spend a few too many hours searching for them and identifying them with my microscopes at home.

I'm a Primary School Science Teacher, with a degree in Biological Sciences (Hons Botany/Mycology). Part of the excitement comes when teaching students about these tiny creatures and encouraging them to find what they love too.

Feel free to drop me a message and say hello if you want to talk about myxos with me. I'm always keen. :)
