The Birnam Oak, close to the south bank of the River Tay at Birnam in Perthshire. The tree is said to have helped inspire Shakespeare's "Macbeth" after a visit by the playwright in 1589. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/d…
The Birnam Oak. The two images both show the oak without leaves. It has a thick central trunk and spreads to cover a large area. Some of the lower branches are supported on thick pillars of wood. The difference between the two images is that one has the sun behind the photographer so shows the oak in full light, with the river glimpsed beyond it. The other is looking into the sun, so the tree is silhouetted and there is a hedge in the background with houses beyond it.

If you like castles, Scotland, history, witches, stone circles and Christmas done medieval-style, you might like THE MERMAID AND THE BEAR by Ailish Sinclair. There’s also a love story. getbook.at/Themermaidandtheb… #HistoricalFiction #KindleUnlimited

Set in a fictional castle in Aberdeenshire, Ailish’s debut novel, THE MERMAID AND THE BEAR, features an often overlooked period of history, the Scottish witchcraft accusations. #booktwt

On a Dark, Stormy Night the great gates of the Old Castle creaked open to allow us mortals to enter. Spooky tales and perhaps watching ghosts awaited us. Pure Halloween Magic Last night at @RabyCastle #FolkloreSunday – at Picktree, England

The Hole Stone (or Crow Stone) in Galloway. Local tradition says that it was used during marriage ceremomies, by joining hands through the hole. It stands close to the White Cairn and another stone reputedly once accompanied it. #Scotland #History #StandingStoneSunday
Moody black and white photo of a standing stone in a grassy field. The stone is pierced by a hole, about one third of the way from the top. The sky is cloudy but light is breaking to the left.
