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.

I arrived a little early for my meet-up in Edinburgh this morning so took the opportunity to check a section of Salisbury Crags for Fulmars. Almost immediately I noticed a single bird on a ledge and two others soaring along the cliff edge (and sparring with Jackdaws). The bird on the ledge then took to the air and soared with the other two. Other notable birds seen (or rather heard) during a walk from Aberlady to Gullane were Skylark and Linnet. Also interesting were several Mistletoe plants which I noticed in trees at Rosebank, Seton Mains (NT427751) as we drove by on the adjacent A198. I must go back and survey them properly.
