Heather burn patterns, Highland, Scotland
Aerials of Muirburn in the Cairngorm mountains of Scotland. The patchwork pattern comes from the practice of gamekeepers on the large estates burning the heather to promote fresh growth for the benefit of the grouse. Grouse shooting on the estates is one of the economic lynchpins of estate life.
