Partial Solar Eclipse over Broughty Castle, Broughty Ferry, Firth of Tay. The picture was constructed by taking a photo of the sun every 10 minutes through a solar filter, then superimposing 16 of them in approximately the position observed on the background photo of Broughty Castle, from where the eclipse was viewed. The next solar eclipse in the UK occurs on 10 June 2021, beginning at 10.08am and ending at 12.22pm. It will reach its 'maximum' – the moment when the greatest amount of Sun is hidden – at 11.13am. In Scotland, about 32% of the sun will be obscured.

Tay Reed Beds - areas cut for reedbed management

Tay Reed Beds
The Tay Reed Beds - Areas of reed are cut to provide structure, including open and wet habitat and reed edge to provide ideal conditions for wildlife, including Reed buntings and Bearded tits, which can feed in the more open areas and move to the reedbeds for breeding. Cutting also prevents natural succession to woodland and helps to maintain the reedbed, and can supply reed for commercial use.
