We also share some more in-depth stories about the Trust’s work:
Nature and climate
Trust ambassador, vet and adventurer Dr Cal Major reflects on a month spent protecting the precious biodiversity of St Kilda’s seabird residents.
‘The opportunity to spend a month on St Kilda felt like a dream come true.’
Auld acquaintances
Meet some of the people who had the biggest influence on Robert Burns.
‘Burns certainly seemed troubled by the loss of Mary, telling a friend that he had been “pining under secret wretchedness ... with some wandering stabs of remorse”.’
Ready to land
As winter migrant birds head to Scotland’s wetlands in search of food and better weather, we reveal the best Trust places to see them.
‘You may hear the bugling call of whooper swans coming to roost on the flooded marsh, or the demonic cackle and scream of a little grebe.’
Island of legend
The Isle of Staffa and the sublime acoustics of Fingal’s Cave have long motivated artists, writers and musicians into surges of creativity.
‘Nature’s symphony creates a cacophony of unnerving rumbles and booms, as air is sucked in and blasted out of the cave by the wind and the waves.’
