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 noticed a recent record of Hawfinches in Holme Hill Park, Dunblane and since I was passing there today, I decided to visit the site. There was certainly no shortage of birds with a total of 25 species logged. However Hawfinch failed to make it onto the list. Best birds were three singing Stock Doves, a flyover Oystercatcher and a Jay. However the best sighting was of a single Red Squirrel. A Red Kite was over the A9 on the way back to Glasgow.
