  1. 2/2.
    ... and a couple more bridges from the day.

    #GarvaBridge where we started the walk, built as part of General Wade's military road in the 1730s. Impressive buttresses.

    A redundant bridge in Glen Shirra. The river was "canalised" as part of the Spey Dam water extraction scheme in the 1940s, you can see it running across the pic behind the bridge. But I'm impressed that they left the bridge standing.

  2. I was back in time late this afternoon; 1978 trying hard to remember what geography teacher Charlie Combes said about the vital importance of flood plains ..... #RiverSpey 'doing it's job' today in the #Cairngorms

  4. Great step forward for #Scotland’s Beaver 🦫 reintroduction programme

    Releases of beaver families have been approved by #NatureScot at new Cairngorms National Park sites

    NatureScot has today approved a licence for #CairngormsNationalPark Authority to release up to six #beaver families at agreed sites in upper #RiverSpey catchment.

    The decision will help increase the current range of #beavers in Scotland.

  8. Pitchroy is one of several monuments near the confluence of #RiverSpey & Avon. Two stones remain of a circle thought by some to have once been a Clava Cairn #StandingStoneSunday. More from @megalithic here megalithic.co.uk/article.php?s

  9. The Whale & Dolphin charity that I work for (WDC) has it's Scottish office in the old salmon fishing station at Spey Bay on the Moray Firth coast - I always love going along for a visit, such a lovely area. #SpeyBay #MorayFirth #dolphins #fishing #Drone #RiverSpey

  10. Schotland in de herfst is bijzonder mooi. In september waren we in #Edinburg en omstreken. Deze foto is uit eerdere jaren en is van de river Spey gelegen in de #Speyside, daar waar de Malt whisky trail omheen cirkelt. Als je ooit besluit om #Schotland met een bezoek te vereren, doe dat dan in het voorjaar of najaar.
