Dunkeld Bridge







The bridge over the Tay at Dunkeld was designed by Thomas Telford and erected in 1809.


There was a male Common Merganser (Mergus merganser) beneath the bridge when we were there in May.


And the Mayflies were swarming in huge numbers. The original of this photo - i.e. at 2592 x 1944 pixels - shows hundreds and hundreds of them.

  1. I remember when you posted the shot with the Mayflies. It was amazing. The last shot in this post looks so tranquil.

  3. These are remarkable photos. I see Jo sitting on the beach up there at the top, under your header. I do hope that she's able to rest while she's there...enjoy the beach and breathe in contentment before you both return to every day life :)
