Oil-seed rape field near Coultra An oil-seed rape field at Coultra, with plants nearing the end of flowering. This crop is surprisingly tall - the camera was held above my head to take this image. The hedging (left of image) marks the position of a minor road on cycle route NCN1 - this section running from Newburgh to Newport on Tay offers excellent cycling, with good views over the Tay estuary.
