We visitedThe Puzzling Place in Keswick on our holiday. If you’re in the area it’s a must.

Encouraged by Rob’s kind comments on my last photo, this is one taken recently at the junction of the switchback road and the A811 on the banks of the Endrick near Drymen in Stirlingshire.

I took these whilst out cycling and walking in the hills above Tummel Bridge where we were based. There is a great route by the old forestry road which takes you up to a viaduct which runs for miles. This is some of the interesting flora and fauna I encountered along the way. Click on [...]
