Starling Birds Eating Mealworms On Visit To My Cottage Garden In Scone By Perth Perthshire Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Winter wildlife nature camera travel video clip of the sight and sounds of Starling birds eating Mealworms on an afternoon visit and trip to my cottage garden in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Packed with healthy fat, protein and fibre that help strength and growth, mealworms make great bird food that feeds hungry birds all year round. The Starling is a familiar bird that breeds in farmland, suburban areas and open woodlands. Seen from a distance, starlings look black with a short tail and pointed yellow bill, but when seen close-to, they are very glossy with a metallic sheen of purples and greens. Starlings forage in lawns, fields, and other open areas with short vegetation. They are primarily insectivores in their natural habitat, but will feed on a wide variety of items outside of their natural diet, including fruits and seeds. The starling can be found throughout lowland Scotland where there is cultivation and pasture. It is generally absent in highlands and in areas dominated by grass or heather moorland. Highest densities are found along the East coast, Central lowlands and Dumfries and Galloway. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February.
