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.
A Greenfinch was singing again in the car park of the UWS Paisley campus this morning. A brief, late lunchtime walk in Greenock found many Herring Gulls and Lesser Black-backed Gulls re-occupying their nesting ledges on the tenement roofs. A pair of the latter on a flat roof were engaged in an elaborate "slow goose-stepping" display for a spell in the afternoon.
