West of Loch Rannoch in Scotland, the area is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Area of Conservation that is notable for its wildlife.  Among other distinctions, Rannoch Moor is the home of the Rannoch Rush, a rare flower species.

The history of golf is grounded in the legendary St. Andrews Golf Course in Scotland. It's been played there for more than 600 years (aside from a 45 year break in the 17th century when King James II banned the game to ensure young men also focused on sports like archery).   Golfers around the world - outside of the USA - have long adhered to the governing rules of the sport as defined by The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, as seen in this aerial tour provided by contributor and drone pilot Jaybee2786.

Inveraray Castle is one of the most famous in Scotland.  Comparatively new by Scottish standards, it was constructed in the 18th century as a country house for the Dukes of Argyll, the chiefs of the powerful Campbell clan.  Considered one of the first Gothic Revival castles, it's located on the shores of Loch Fyne in the Argyll and Bute council area.  Seen from above in this excellent drone video by Neil_Stapleton, Inverary Castle "played the role" of Duneagle Castle in the 2012 Christmas episode of the hit TV series Downton Abbey.

Linithgow Palace is one of the most important castles in the Lowlands of Scotland.  It's located on Loch Linithgow, a bit south of the Firth of Forth and a somewhat further distance west of Edinburgh. Originally a utilitarian fortress, it was rebuilt as a royal palace in the 15th century and was the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots. It fell into disuse following the unification of the English and Scottish crowns in 1603.  The castle was burned during the 18th century Jacobite Rebellion and was never re-occupied.

Brand-new contributor PeeJay brings us this marvelous drone video of Dunnottar Castle, a famous fortification in northeastern Scotland.  Located on a tiny peninsula in Aberdeenshire, the structure dates to the 15th-16th centuries.  Long believed to be virtually impregnable, the Scottish Crown Jewels were moved here for safekeeping during the English Civil War in the mid-17th century; it later played an important role in the 18th century Jacobite Uprising.  More recently, Dunnottar was used as a filming location for the 1996 movie Hamlet.
