Stardate: 11082020: All across the bloomin’ Heather.

What a day to do the Birkwood circular walk! If you ever need to get all smoothed out inside I heartily recommend the Birkwoods – you can sit silently and observe the deer, the finches and buntings, toads in the wet ground, the light which seems specific to the area – as its breaks through the twisted birch branches and the weather moving slowly over the mighty Cairngorm mountains. It really gives me a sense of scale and peace.
