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.

Had a really good walk from the glade to Waterfoot (didn't quite make it to East Kilbride as intended. Highlights along the way were:
Great crested Grebes on Waulkmill Glen and Balgray Reservoirs.
A pair of Dippers nest-building in Waulkmill Glen.
Pairs of Grey Wagtails at several sites.
Three Sand Martins over Waulkmill Glen Reservoir (first of the year).
Two singing Chiffchaffs and flowering Coltsfoot at Ryatt Linn Reservoir (first of the year).
Flowering Butterbur along the Waulkmill Glen road.
A pair of Goldeneye on Balgray Reservoir.
Eight Teal on the pool at Waterside Farm [23,971].
