This is the story of teenage Jed - 'Oxy' in its earlier pages - an oddball outsider who discovers a liking for birds but is baffled by everything else. A hard book to describe, its sometimes-comic narrative includes teenage paranoia, obsessions, eating disorders, religious sectarianism, repression, working-class life, father/son relationships, and wild birds' eggs. Underpinned by a fascination for the natural world, it is emphatically not of the 'plashy fen' school of nature writing. At root it is about the small moments, intently described, which are, ultimately, all we have. The Ayrshire Nestling will be available for sale exclusively at this in-person launch, priced £14. To order other copies, contact the author directly.

Best Things to Do

Historic buildings

老隋在行走

Very good, the clerk is very good and warm. The location is very good just below the castle, very close to various attractions, the only one is a little distance from the station.

Palace of Holyroodhouse

M12***57

Holyrood Palace is very spectacular, with ancient palace architectural style, classical style buildings, and very good landscaping. It is worth visiting. Britannia is worth visiting, but the fun is average and the cost performance is not high.

Edinburgh Old Town

M Ahem

Awesome place! Had an amazing experience&mdash;highly recommended for everyone to visit!

Night view

💎月亮宝石环游世界🌎

It is the most romantic sunset place. I have been here, it was cold but beautiful! I will not go into details about the many celebrity check-in places.
But my only deepest experience was the lyrics,
&quot;The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you&quot;
I didn&#39;t think this song was romantic before, until I climbed to the top of Carlton Mountain⛰️It was really speechless and beautiful!!
I really like this light blue gentle dusk~~Thanks to the little afterglow near sunset that day, I saw the light blue and light orange sky line in the distance, which was really extremely romantic~~Continuously touched me✨💕🌹Recommend this extremely romantic place, must go?
【Scenery】
Medieval dusk🌆, the only one in the world❤️
