This isn’t a quiz….well, at least, not in the sense that I know the answer! I came across these strange marks on fallen trees in a forest recently. Have you any idea what makes this happen? Is it a fungus? An insect? A worm?? Look at the variety, it’s quite astonishing!

Does anyone know what makes these marks?

….under the forest floor, in a small earthy cave, this sparkling jewel of a web was woven……

One of the good things about a really early morning flight is that you have the chance to see the dawn from above the clouds. It’s beautiful to see them blushing pink as the sun rises over the horizon.
This reminds me, please go and look at this. It’s a movie by Yann Arthus-Bertrand. He takes [...]

How does your day begin?
I took this photo of the sun rising behind the old factories on the other side of Stirling station yesterday, and it got me thinking about the start of the day. Every day the sun comes up (but we don’t always notice it). In some cultures and traditions this simple, daily [...]

Look at the colour of this water. It’s an amazing colour isn’t it?
Why is it that colour? It’s the effect of all the leaves on the trees of the forest through which the stream is flowing. On another day, in another season, this very water (well, actually, this very stream, not this very water!), looks [...]

I took a walk at the weekend. Up through the Birks of Aberfeldy. Robert Burns wrote a poem about this place. Here he is -
