Tour Scotland short 4K late Autumn travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking by icy Loch Lochy on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to the Highlands, Britain, United Kingdom. Like many Scottish lochs, Loch Lochy has its legends. Local lore includes tales of a supernatural creature called the River Horse, or Lord of the Lake, a being that could assume a horse's shape and was known to overturn boats and lure mares. There are also modern tales of " Lizzie" , a lesser-known cousin of the Loch Ness Monster. The Battle of the Shirts, Blàr na Léine: Fought in July 1544 near the northern end of the loch, this was a significant and bloody clash between the Clan Donald, Clanranald, and the Clan Fraser. The battle earned its name because the heat of the day caused many warriors to shed their heavy armour and fight in only their shirts. Autumn leaf color or colour is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the Autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage or simply foliage in American. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome
