Loch ness
Loch Ness takes its name from the River Ness which flows from the loch's northern end. The river's name probably derives from an old Celtic word meaning 'roaring one'
Loch Ness has one small island, Cherry Island (Scottish Gaelic: Eilean Muireach, meaning Murdoch's Island), at the southwestern end of the loch. It is an artificial island, known as a crannog, and was likely constructed during the Iron Age

The Scottish flag, known as the Saltire or St Andrew's Cross, features a white diagonal cross (saltire) on a blue background.
The white cross symbolizes purity, faith, honesty, peace, and divine protection, reflecting the Christian faith and the martyrdom of St Andrew, Scotland's patron saint, who was crucified on a decussate (X-shaped) cross.
The blue background represents the sky and sea surrounding Scotland, as well as loyalty, perseverance, truth, justice, vigilance, and the nation's deep connection to its natural landscape and heritage.
