Tour Scotland very short 4K wildlife camera travel video clip Wigeons on visit to a loch in the Scottish Highlands, Britain, United Kingdom.

The breeding male is unmistakable, with a distinctive chestnut head, creamy yellow forehead and crown, grey flanks and back, and a black rear end. Wigeons are largely vegetarian and surface feeders on leaves, stems, grass seeds and sedges. They also feed on aquatic plants, algae and eelgrasses in estuaries. Wigeons are found on lochs, marshes and bogs in Perth and Kinross, the Grampian Mountains, Orkney Mainland, the Flow Country of Caithness and Sutherland and the Spey Valley.
