Haiku to lemon sole

July 17, 2018 by Marine Scotland Communications No Comments | Category Marine Directorate Science

If you thought our scientists just did fish, think again… sort of.

The head of Sea Fisheries Programme, Dr Coby Needle, has written this haiku about a lemon sole. It’s not his first foray in to poetry for this particular fish. He wrote an Iambic Pentameter earlier this year too.

It’s fish, Jim, but not as we know it.
