Labradorite Emu Egg Planting

On a rare sunny day at the end of last week in Orkney, I planted a further labradorite emu egg, this time to the cliffs above Skaill Bay, Orkney. These eggs, programmed to strengthen immunity to all in their wake are being placed in response to the ongoing challenges bird flu poses to our wild birds in particular sea bird colonies. It is mainly fulmars that nest upon this stretch of coast, yet many other species fly by and feed on the fields and grassland adjacent to the cliffs, all of which will receive an energy wash from the crystal each time they are within its vicinity. Although far fewer dead birds are being found here on the Northern Isles this year, numbers of certain species in particular gannets and great and artic skuas are noticeably reduced in numbers. 

As I stood on the cliffs after planting and igniting the crystal, both a gannet and a bonxie (great skua) flew past. A timely reminder perhaps, of the simplicity, beauty and power of this way of working to help our beautiful planet and her inhabitants.
