There’s so many reasons why my company Landscaping Your Life is a corporate partner for SCOTLAND: The Big Picture Giving back to something I use daily in my work being one. This post about burns and rivers has me thinking more metaphorically about the reasons (no surprise there then). I love the idea that helping people find their passion and flow in life adds a few twists and bends to their lives. Allowing them time to question the oughts, shoulds, musts, stereotypes and boxes. If you want to add more bends in your life, more meandering, and allow for more passion do get in touch to find out more about Landscaping Your Life coaching walks (with me in person or at the end of a phone asking questions as you walk through a landscape near you - with Florida, California, France, England and Scotland places I’ve already done virtual sessions from). If you’d like to help Scotland’s landscapes do the same get in touch with S:TBP. #landscapingyourlife #rewilding #nature #coaching

Excellent news though I do take issue with the idea that these beautiful lizards are 'common' they are anything but a true wonder of nature. Even in 1912 these lizards were not common throughout England - the majority of which has no lizards. They are widespread and can be locally abundant but are still cannot be considered as common in the status sense. Nor are they dull - a host of colours and patterns exist throughout their range with many colour morphs across their range. They have essentially anti freeze in their blood to prevent succumbing to ice and frost, they live in the coldest place in the Northern Hemisphere and to me are an ideal candidate as a bio indicator species for nature recovery in England. From rewilding to Biodiversity Net Gain this species will feature as they spread out from their countryside refuges - as the anthills, grass tussocks, bramble edges, woodland edges arise from nature recovery so will the numbers of lizards - recording them on the ground will provide the evidence as to whether the action is working over the next 30 to 40years.

It's #NationalOwlAwarenessDay! One owl we are particularly aware of is the burrowing owl. The western species of burrowing owl is currently protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a National Bird of Conservation Concern. Burrowing owl populations are decreasing in size due to loss of nesting habitat from increasing human development. But we are on it!
