Grey Heron Fishing In The Outer Harbour On Visit To St Andrews Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland travel video of a Grey Heron fishing in the outer harbour on visit to St Andrews, Fife. Herons are unmistakeable: tall birds, with long legs, a long beak and grey, black and white feathering. The bird can stand with neck stretched out, looking for food, or hunched down with their neck bent over their chest. The word heron is rather old and of uncertain origin. It appeared in the English language around 1300, originating from the Latin aerius meaning aerial All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
