Imbolc - The sun is swimming back to the sky. The Goddess of Winter is dreaming of spring. Take time to smile at snowdrops & the gently swelling buds on the trees. Winter dances with a gleam in her eyes 🌱

We've had the first snowfall of the year so it was about time to make broth. I made it lovingly, the way my Granda did. I loved his soup. Mine never quite measures up. Not the same recipe as Jackie Kay's grandpa, yet the sentiment is the same 💓🍲 #grandpassoup

Once upon a time I could be found in the woods at 5am watching squirrels, collecting hair samples and analysing data on squirrel distribution in Scotland. Since then Aberdeen has become almost Grey free. However greys are still migrating North. Report your sittings!
