Tealingの湖・トップ7

リバーサイド自然公園内のこの場所は、アカアシシギ、ミヤコドリ、ダイシャクシギなどの渉禽類が、水たまりやテイー河口の干潟で餌を食べるのを観察するのに最適です。草原地帯ではヒバリやホオジロが繁殖し、秋から冬にかけては、多くの他の渉禽類とともに、多数のヒシクイの群れが集まります。

From here, if you don't wish to stop on the ridge, there's a track that drops down giving access to Long Loch.

A plentiful supply and mix of dirt and gravel paths and tracks.

As you make your way along the ridge of the Lundie Craigs, you will be afforded some unforgettable views over Long Loch and the surrounding countryside of the county of Angus.

Clatto Country Park on the northern fringe of Dundee is a large reservoir and areas of woodland. A network of paths circles the reservoir and wind through the woodland. The reservoir is a nice short loop and it's easy to make a longer walk by starting in Dundee or exploring the trails further. The reservoir was constructed in 1874 to supply water to Dundee but it's no longer on the supply network.

Nice wee spot to watch our feathered friends near Invergowrie.

You can choose between 4 different trails of different lengths in Crombie Country Park. Fantastic strolls through the forest are guaranteed! My walk, following mostly the “Discovery Trail”, offers also a splendid view of the lake. Some practical info: the car park for the whole day costs 2.80 GBP (May 2020), and you’ll find lots of benches for a nice picnic :p

Morton Lochs is part of Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve (NNR) located near Tayport, in the north east of Fife, Scotland. It consists of three small lochs important for a variety of waterfowl species. Access to the nature reserve can be gained from the public footpath through Scotscraig golf course in Tayport, from the many footpaths in Tentsmuir Forest, or by road by turning off towards Morton on the B945 between Tayport and Leuchars. There is a small car park beside the reserve which is close to the two main footpaths. Surrounding the lochs are three bird hides that are accessible for public use, and another hide that requires a key available from Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH). Three of the hides sit on the largest of the three lochs with the other being on the South Loch Morton Lochs is not a naturally occurring wetland system; it was made by local land owners, the Christie family, in 1906. They initially flooded this area of dune heath for fishing, but it quickly became an important centre for wintering wildfowl. Perhaps the most notable visitor is the teal, which comes in its hundreds at times according to entries made in the record book in the hide. The teal is also the emblem for the NNR, and appears on signs at the entrance to the reserve. Morton Lochs was defined as an NNR in 1952, at the time being the second NNR in the UK.
