The damp weather returned today but I was cheered up by the first flowers on the Fritillaries in the Moira Jones Memorial Garden in Queen's Park. Flowering Coltsfoot and a big Buff-tailed Bumblebee were other, more modest highlights.
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.
