Greenwood-Alexander Family update
-
In the last few weeks we've been spending lots of time outdoors discovering and exploring the forests in Callander Crags, Glen Finglas, Little Drum Wood and around Loch Katrine. As well as going for walks and cycles and exploring through climbing trees and jumping in puddles we've also been collecting leaves and seeds for tree ID and crafting and have been practising our photography and ID skills on all the fungi out at the moment. Robin's been learning about different tree species, how trees grow, the symbiosis between fungi and trees and all about the local landscape and history. We've been lucky to spot red squirrels a few times and have watched them racing through the trees and collecting nuts. We've also taken the time to sit quietly and listen to the birds and other forest noises.
