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 was the day of my annual survey of the birds on Loch Lomondside from Rowardennan north. In the event, today's figures are not comparable with those from previous years because I started significantly later this year and walked significantly less far. Nevertheless here they are: Wood Warbler (7); Willow Warbler (22); Chiffchaff (11); Blackcap (18); Garden Warbler (4); Tree Pipit (1); Redstart (1 at Cashel); Pied Flycatcher (0); Spotted Flycatcher (0); Nuthatch (7). Best sightings included good views of the Garden Warblers and at Least two Bee-flies.
