Today we"re wishing a very happy birthday to the man regarded as Scotland"s national poet and a pioneer of the Romantic movement, Robert Burns. Perhaps you can celebrate by visiting his statue at the Birks of Aberfeldy in Perth and Kinross, as seen in today"s photo. The birch trees here ("birks" in the Scots language) and a local waterfall inspired him to write a song lyric, "The Birks of Aberfeldy," in 1787.
