Picture of a burn (river) running across a beach, a small wave running inA nice sunny view in Machir Bay from November 2014. Allt Gleann na Ceardaich (at least that’s what I think it is, although it could also be some water from Allt na Criche) runs across the beach, bringing some peat with it. From the other side a small wave runs up the against the flow of the water.
