Scottish B&B owner has come up with a novel way to clip the wings of speeding drivers-a birdbox disguised as a roadside camera.
Stuart McDonald, 57, who runs the Langside B&B near Crieff in Perthshire, built the box amid concerns that increasing traffic noise and inconsiderate driving was ruining the area.

He said “It seems to be making people aware of their speed and they now slow down.
“The farmers in particular like it as they’re no longer losing stray sheep to people speeding on the road.”
Stuart used off-cuts of wood, an old DVD cover, an old camera lens and a plastic drainpipe to build the box, which is on his land next to a ‘B’ road near Braco.
