Absolutely beautiful piece of nature writing. The bit about pine martens dispersing to Haldon from the Two Moors project is fascinating and heartbreaking in equal measure. Your observation about geology underlying ecology and history feels like one of those connections thats obvious once you see it but easy to miss otherwise. Grew up near some hills in Pennsylvania with simialr vibes and can confirm that sense of something old watching back never quite fades.
Thank you! The wonderful thing about geology and landscapes too is that there are echoes of these landscapes all over the world. It is something we share.
