Before singing a HU Song (A Love Song to God) at ECKANKAR’s Course on Spiritual Wisdom on Relationships last night I looked at the large old trees outside, thought of my love for All Beings, and how they play with the light (filtered by their form, reflected by their leaves) and sound (wind) of God.
We [...]
Pig Party digs ground ready for planting
Having dug calendula, horehound, and St. John’s Wort, and alpine strawberries out of our gravel paths I kept them moist, packed some cardboard for mulching and headed off to Koha Gardens to introduce them there.
If the St. John’s Wort and Horehound thrive up there we will probably stop growing them in Connection, our main clearing, [...]
Wild track diggers make a pig of a job
Are there any compassionate hunters who talk to the animals, asking them first if they are prepared to be hunted, prepared to die, to feed the hunter?
We need to talk to one.
A recent walk of our tracks revealed that the wild pig(s) are making digging up our trails a live and death issue. I’ve talked [...]
Pet Woodies – Native Wood Pigeons
I wondered what was I going to write about. Would it really be that important.
The two native wood pigeons answered by flying in to perch right outside my window. Looking one directly in the eye I knew, yes, I was still to write about the “Woodies”.
But everyone has pet wood pigeons “They are so friendly [...]
David bumbles into Bumbles
David was simply stirring up the many native seedlings that grow in their gravelled (metalled) paths yesterday, when along comes Lorraine, and says “Did you see the BumbleBee nest?”. Obligingly the first bumble bee that David had seen then appears seemingly on cure and David answers “No – where is?”
Lorraine goes to the edge of [...]
Plump Wood Pigeons take the fruit
Lorraine and David stood by one of their black currant bushes and pondered “What broke all these branches – maybe a hare or possum pulling them down to eat the currants – how can we tell?
No answers seemed to come in David’s morning contemplation, but as so often happens in contemplation Spirit delivers the answers [...]
Pee in the bucket: Honey Bees Love it.
Don’t know what bees need it for, but they love pee. We leave our pee bucket outside and they come on by morning to night to devour it. David says “I give it a sharp tap with my foot and the quickly fly out when I want to use it”.
David says “I’ve thought of not [...]
Field Mouse comes to Dinner on New’s Year Day
Imagine their surprise when David and Lorraine enjoying their first dinner of the year on the porch of Lorraine’s cabin, and a little mouse climbs up to the top of a bag right by their table, and looks at us, sniffs at the delightful strawberries, and climbs on back down. David said to it “Your [...]

Fearing that which we do not know we destroy that which we would seek to understand.
Ready enough to understand that we want to understand our environment, but not yet ready to save much of it for study. We believe all we need to know something is to have specimens. But a million oil and waste [...]
