Herons aren't just posing—they're hunting! Perched in trees over rivers, they spot fish and other prey. Next time you see one, remember: it's a masterful hunter!

"I sit beside the fire and think of all that I have seen, of meadow-flowers and butterflies in summers that have been; Of yellow leaves and gossamer in autumns that there were, with morning mist and silver sun..." Tolkien

The intriguing village of Temple, the main base of the Knights Templar in Scotland until the order was dissolved following the arrest of many of its members by King Philip IV of France on Friday 13 October 1307, 717 years ago today. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/t…
ALT Temple. The image shows a view down a shadowed hillside covered in gravestones to a ruined church seen end on in the middle left of the frame. To its right is a collection of stone houses in the bottom of a valley and there are trees on the far side of the valley. Except for the foreground, the scene is in sunlight.

1/2 Alex Salmond studied under GWS Barrow @univofstandrews - the man who wrote the definitive book on Robert the Bruce. He loved Barbour’s epic poem The Brus, and lines like “For we hae the richt, and for the richt ilk man suld fecht” were in his DNA as a Scottish patriot

WHERE IN SCOTLAND?
Where is this?
This is a detail from an image that appears somewhere on Undiscovered Scotland. Please reply with your answers. We'll award kudos to the first correct response before posting the next in the series tomorrow.
ALT Today's 'Where in Scotland' image. It is a vertical image showing a view from under trees of a green area within a settlement. A road runs from the lower left to the mid right of the frame and there is a bench and a pedestrian signpost this side of it. On the far side of the green area is a line of large stone or white-finished buildings, beyond more trees. The scene is in sunlight.

An introduction to Scots, my mither tongue. Spoken by 1.5 million Scots and Ulster Scots, it is the medium of a great literary tradition going back a thousand years. It profoundly influences the variety of English spoken here. Ignorance anent Scots is endemic. Don’t be ignorant.
