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.

Today's walk from Shawlands to Cathcart Cemetery took place in bright spring sunshine. Notable bird species included Treecreeper, Nuthatch, Goosanderand two pairs of Stock Doves. The main botanical highlight was a flowering Cherry Plum tree along the river in Battlefield. Snowdrops are now "going over" with Daffodil flowers still not fully open. Plants already in flower consisted of a few each of Dandelion and Common Chickweed and lots of Gorse and Crocus spp.
