Nature On Its Own Terms

January 2nd, 2010 by Alison · 2 Comments · nature

Happy New Year to all my readers (and also to the much larger group of people in the world who are not my readers). Juliet Wilson, a writer and photographer I like a lot, just posted that  in Edinburgh, Scotland, where she lives, she has never seen so much snow over such a long period of time. 4199950585_a4a647ac59No tone of complaint, just a photo of her latest snowy walk and a report of some wonderful winter birdwatching.

Here is the comment I posted just now on Juliet’s site:

I admire your good attitude toward what sounds like record snow levels in Edinburgh. I confess I find cold, snowy winters difficult (growing up in sub-tropical Southern California was a bit formative, I’m afraid). Accepting the natural world on ITS terms instead of thinking the natural world ought to be accommodating and coddling us is one of the many things I like about your blog.
