Hi Tom,
The glen in the photo is in the Scottish Highlands, to the north of Inverness. Glen is a Scottish word for valley.
Cheers,
Ian

Bravo.
Thanks. It is very late in the day when the lazy river gets tired of its green and is willing to reflect the richer colours of the surroundings. There were three cranes busy foraging along the muddy banks and you needed patience to capture all the three with their heads up. Nevertheless, I prefer the image of a single bird which works better with the serene atmosphere.

I believe the Spanish air force is still flying AV-8B II+ aircraft.
We actually live in the same town!
