Rowan tree berries Sorbus aucuparia and curtained formations of Old Man’s Beard lichen Usnea, adorn the ancient Caledonian woodlands of Glen Affric that became part of Scotland’s National Forest in 1951. Since then, foresters, deer managers and volunteers have carried out a large degree of conservation work to restore and rewild this iconic glen.
