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.
According to lothianbirdnews a Wood Duck has appeared on Linlithgow Loch. I had one on the canal about half a mile from the loch a few years ago. At the time, I think I concluded that it had originated from an estate next to the canal. I wonder if this is the same bird, or from the same source. They are lovely birds, whatever their provenance.
