A Goldcrest was singing strongly from a conifer in a Showhill Road garden when I passed this afternoon. Three Grey Squirrels seemed to be working together to raid the bins near the retail park.
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.
