HMS Beagle on the Strait of Magellan, South America, originally published in an 1890 edition of Charles Darwin's Journal of Researches into the Geology and Natural History of the Various Countries Visited by H.M.S. Beagle.
Ahoy, Beagleniks!
Those inspired minds over at the Beagle Project have a brand new shiny blog.
Sure, they're building a replica of the H.M.S. Beagle in time for the 2009 celebrations of Darwin's 200th birthday, and will be sailing around the world in Darwin's wake, after loading the Beagle with scientists and sailors, but they somehow also find the time to write a wicked blog.
Readers and Writers Blog reviewed them thusly:
"...the blog is extremely well written. Now believers in creationism and intelligent design, take note: Our interest in the blog is its writing and history, but be warned that the Beagle bloggers do gore your oxen....much of the rest of the blog also is written with a sense of humour, but with a serious devotion to Darwin and the tall ship replica that will celebrate him and his groundbreaking science."

After spending two days fettling (a Yorkshire term) the new blog it's good to have some coverage. Thanks for the post and the links. You may yet have helped the Beagle's bowsprit into some fascinating harbours.
