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.

Today's walk up Dumyat in Stirlingshire promised little with the weather forecast promising wind, rain and unseasonably cold temperatures. However some interesting birds were encountered along the way (and the weather didn't turn out quite so bad) including single Kestrels and Buzzards being mobbed by Carrion Crows, a Stonechat family at one site (and Wheatear families at two), a calling Red Grouse and numerous singing Skylarks and Meadow Pipits. A single Swift was over the parking area at the end of the walk.
