Herring Gull By The River Tay On History Visit To Dundee Tayside Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K early Autumn wildlife camera travel video clip, of the sight and sounds of a Herring Gull bird by the River Tay on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Dundee, Tayside, Britain, United Kingdom. Herring gulls are one of the commonest gulls on the coast and in towns and cities and these birds can be seen in all parts of Scotland. Herring Gulls have a rich repertoire of calls, each of which may be modified in different contexts and accompanied by different postures. For example, the long drawn single note of their mew call is almost always accompanied by an arched neck, and it serves to attract attention. The keow call is highly individual and can serve as personal identification. When trumpeted more and more shrilly as the gull lowers and then raises its head, this becomes the gull's long call, the most elaborate, variable, and individualized call in its repertoire. The River Tay, Scottish Gaelic: Tatha, is the longest river in Scotland and the seventh longest in the United Kingdom. The Tay originates in western Scotland on the slopes of Ben Lui, Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Laoigh, then flows easterly across the Highlands, through Loch Dochart, Loch Iubhair and Loch Tay, then continues east through Strathtay, in the centre of Scotland, then southeasterly through Perth, Perthshire, where it becomes tidal, to its mouth at the Firth of Tay, south of Dundee. It is the largest river in the UK by measured discharge. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
