Edinburgh !

Its an absolute scorcher today but quite nice in the shade under the trees, with the fountain cascade in the background.

It is difficult to recognise the absence of something. I realised on to-day's #DogWalk that I haven't heard a cuckoo for over a week. It wasn't that long ago that I was heralding the arrival of the cuckoos. Now, they have left already (or, maybe, have stopped calling).

To be honest, the incessant calling of the cuckoos, during May, was getting on my nerves. 😃

Here we go: now pitfall traps are collecting critters on the ground at the #alpine plateau of Ben Avon, in the #CairngormsNationalPark in the Scottish #Highlands. 🕷️🪲🐛

Four habitat types, three pitfall traps each: looking forward!
Maybe we can find some new records of soil invertebrates? The chances are high, as alpine soil fauna studies are rare in the UK.

Thanks to Andrea Britton and Debbie Fielding from #jameshuttonInstitute for helping do field work! ✌️
