Dundurn Hillfort and St Fillans Chapel I love coming back to this hillfort because the scenery here is just so breath-taking with the mountains rising up on all sides. The dusting of snow on the tops made it even more scenic. Feral goats roam this area (likely descendants of those abandoned during the Highland Clearances) and funnily enough, there was one at the top keeping an eye on us while indulging in some of the spring greens. There is a graveyard nearby with a ruined chapel dedicated to Saint Fillans. While I was surveying Dundurn with a drone, one of the Red Kites (I’m sure I saw at least two) came to have a closer inspection of this very strange and noisy new bird in the sky. Quite a few birds have checked out the drone so far, but luckily none of them ever tried to attack it. I’m sure they can tell that it’s not a bird. It must be such a strange sight to them. Head over to my February Vlog to see a visit and drone footage of this fort. -- source link
