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.

A walk up to Binnie Craig near Uphall in West Lothian today found Swallows and House Martins moving constantly past the summit. Thirty of the latter were feeding in the lea of a shelter belt to the east. A flock of birds following a plough on the outskirts of Uphall held several hundred mixed gulls (Black-headed, Common, Herring and Lesser Black-backed), smaller numbers of corvids (Rooks and Jackdaws) and at least two Buzzards.
