Another great article from Ben Dolphin, reminding us about the dangers of ticks.
This spring has been particularly bad for me, I got dozens of ticks in the West Highlands on 2 trips despite taking all precautions. Pretty sure it’s due to high deer densities. Does rather put you off wild camping!
There’s been some amazing cloudscapes over the past few days. This was Fife getting a pasting, taken from Silverknowes in Edinburgh this afternoon.
A different kind of #DailyMile today - great company from Ramblers Scotland & the Holyrood Park Ranger service.
Our Walk in the park was fabulous - connecting with geology, nature, wildlife, history & getting some exercise in too.
Powerful medicine!

Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.
