I'm very lucky to live in Canadian lynx habitat. They are very elusive and their population ebbs and peaks with that of their main prey, snowshoe hare. I've only met one a few times and each moment is magical. #mammals. 🌿
Today is the feast day of St Columba (Colum Cille), who according to tradition, wrote the Cathach (RIA MS 12 R 33) as a copy of a Latin psalter belonging to St Finnian in a single night. A dispute arose about the ownership of the copy leading to the battle of Cúl Dreimne in AD 561.
