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 planned to walk from Port Seton to Seton Mains today to check on  the Mistletoe reported growing there. At least five and potential several more of the large Poplars surrounding a small area of woodland showed evidence of Mistletoe presence. Two trees were extensively affected with numerous, large "clumps" noted. Also in that area were flowering Primrose, Hazel, White Dead-nettle and Oxford Ragwort. Birds along the shore at Seaton Sands included a single Ringed Plover, three Rock Pipits and three Bar-tailed Godwits.
