Natural Connections

Modern life in Scotland is increasingly busy. The connections our ancestors had with nature and the land are being lost. As leisure time shrinks, or is filled with hi-tech experiences, opportunities to experience nature become fewer. And yet it is possible to connect with nature on a day to day basis. All around us, the great web of life continues to hold its shape, and nature continues its eternal cycles. Keep looking, listening, smelling, touching - and keep experiencing natural connections.

No big change with the Blue Tits today. The parents continue to feed the chicks very efficiently (I'm amazed at how quickly they fly off, then back with beakfulls of food). The mealworms were not a success - they simply attracted Magpies into the garden, which terrorised the Blue Tits. I've decided to scrap the idea. And anyway, the pair seem to be getting on great without any help.
Over at Parkhead this evening - only sighting of note was a pair of Pied Wagtails flying around the shops in the retail park.

Sorry Kate, I was away for a few days, and when I got back they had flown the nest. They are lovely birds though. For good photos try http://stevenround-birdphotography.com/Blue%20Tit.htm
Best wishes
