Bird man,there's one in every town,this old guy has bags of character.

Ben Lomond from a country road in Paisley.

Sheep on a cold dark January day in the west of Scotland.

Winter frost in the Glen Paisley.

The Larick Beacon at tayport or Tayport Pile as locals call it.

It was built in 1845 and is one of the last remaining wooden pile lighthouses in the country.

The keeper stayed in the octagonal wooden structure the lantern was on the top.

It was designed to guide shipping into the Tay River and Tayport Harbour,the beacon was deactivated in 1966 after the opening of the Tay Road bridge.

The beacon today is in a terrible state,yet another piece of maritime history rotting away.

Older man and his scooter,look like fun,better watch out for police though as its an Electric one.

Saltcoats on a stormy windy day,great place to have a fish supper in the car and watch the waves.
