For
a small county Kinross-shire is rich in history and natural
beauty. Queen Margaret of Scotland, William Wallace and Robert
the Bruce are just a few of the well known British historic
figures who have visited the area. Kinross is also the favoured
destination of many feathered visitors including thousands
of geese who winter here every year.
The geese are so much part of the area that there is now a
sculpture on the traffic island at Junction 6 of the M90 to
welcome all visitors.
