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 return to the bright, cold weather of earlier in the week increased the number of birds showing on my daily walk (from 19 yesterday to 28 today). Some notable species were single Nuthatch (seen almost daily now), two Great Spotted Woodpeckers (possibly a courting pair), three Stock Doves (becoming more visible lately) and an exceptional eight Greenfinches (including five singing males). The cold weather and lying snow has obviously sent the Grey Squirrels back to their dreys as I haven't seen any since Monday.
