EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this underwater snapshot captured by Alex Mustard, we witness a majestic moment as the Queen Scallop (Aequipecten opercularis) indulges in a sumptuous feast. Nestled amidst the breathtaking beauty of Glencoe, Ballachulish, Lochaber in the Scottish Highlands, this regal mollusc showcases its impeccable taste for fine dining. With its delicate bivalve shell and graceful movements, our royal protagonist effortlessly navigates the pristine waters of Loch Leven and Loch Linnhe within the North East Atlantic Ocean. As part of an ancient lineage that has thrived throughout Europe's temperate saltwater realms for centuries, it is no wonder why this elegant creature reigns supreme. As it gracefully opens its pearly gates to reveal rows of succulent morsels suspended in nutrient-rich currents, one can't help but marvel at nature's intricate design. This mesmerizing display reminds us that even beneath the surface lies a world teeming with life and wonder. Join us on this enchanting journey into Scotland's aquatic realm as we celebrate these fascinating invertebrates. Let their vibrant presence serve as a reminder to appreciate every corner of our planet – from land to sea – where extraordinary creatures like the Queen Scallop continue to captivate our imaginations.
