Strimming for Terns and a Cuddly Killer – Muir of Dinnet NNR
It has been another wind-battered week, with Dennis following in Ceira’s footsteps and lashing the reserve. Fortunately, not too much damage…I think any trees that were going to blow over or break have already done so, with all the wind … Continue reading

Short Days – Muir of Dinnet NNR

Winter Wonderland – Muir of Dinnet NNR
Brrr! It’s been another cold week…though they probably laugh at us in North America, where it’s been frighteningly cold. The snow actually disappeared on Friday and Saturday last week, in a rapid melt, but all came back again overnight on … Continue reading

Scorchio! – Muir of Dinnet NNR
Phew! It’s been hot, hot, hot this week! A little too hot at times, truth be told, for a cold- adapted northern species like myself. The temperature made it up to 30 degrees and everything is looking quite dry and … Continue reading
