Nethybridge and Dulnain Bridge
The flooded River Spey valley in winter from above Broomhill, looking east towards Culreach. Increasingly with climate change causing heavy and frequent rainfall, especially in winter, floodplains store water, which has serious implications for farmers relying on pasture there, but helps to prevent flooding of property downstream.

Glenshee - Scenery and Mountain hares in winter
Muir burn, seen from Glenshee. The heather is delberately set alight in winter, to create a patchwork of different ages of heather, so that Red grouse can have areas of long heather to nest in, and also areas of short heather to eat. This practice is now seen by many as doubtful, as it reduces the vegetation on the hills, which drain more quickly and flooding downstream is the result. It also dmages peat, promoting the release of carbon dioxide, the principal greenhouse gas.
