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.

Some of the highlights of today's bus journey to West Kilbride, walk from West Kilbride to Ardrossan and bus journey back to Glasgow were: a pod of dolphins off the Cloch; a Fieldfare among masses of Blackbirds in Kirktonhall Glen, interesting fungi there and on mown grass behind Seamill, Black Spleenwort on the wall of a lane down to the shore, a Little Egret at The Waterside, a good range of ducks on the sea (Eider, Red-breasted Merganser, Goosander, Mallard, Wigeon and Teal); good numbers of Great Black-backed Gulls; Stonechats at two sites; a Razorbill in Ardrossan Harbour; thirteen seals on rocks off Skelmorlie and forty Eider off Wemyss Bay Ferry Terminal.
