Move along, nothing to see here, just the north coast of #Scotland being stunning. It's greedy really, having it all, #sea, #mountains, #forest and #Flowcountry. Today we saw eagles, deer, lizards and an osprey! 📸 mine all mine!

Explain how this fits with re-establishing #ScottishWildcat or how it might impact on #Caper? Oh & you know that the #FlowCountry is far better at #CarbonCapture & storing than woodland at this attitude?

Birds, bogs and peatland restoration - who benefits?
Interesting on how the narrow target focus of public funding can obscure what's happening, between natural regen and the funded intervention.

Very interesting - tho much of it is beyond my pay grade, as with Andy Wightman's ditto. Couple of bits of yours caught my eye:
"If there is no resident community, what then?" made me think of Magnus Davidson's abandoned flowcountry townships, and how good to be able to recognise those as 'parcels'.
