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.

The Puffin season was in full swing when I visited the Isle of May today, with the sky full of birds coming and going. Swallows were nesting in a building near the loch, Rock Pipits were singing and parachuting at various locations, Eider ducks had creches on the loch and in Kirkhaven and at least two pairs of Oystercatcher appeared to be on territory. Birds seen carrying food consisted of Puffin, Rock Pipit and Pied Wagtail.
