Tour Scotland short 4K Summer Thursday wildlife nature camera travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a Jackdaw bird and a Grey Squirrel eating n a morning visit and trip to my cottage garden in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Jackdaws have a distinctive silvery sheen to the back of its head. The pale eyes are also noticeable Jackdaws can be found in fields, woods, parks and gardens. They're social birds and roost communally in woodlands. They're widespread and common across the United Kingdom, except the Scottish Highlands. You can see a jackdaw bird at any time of year. Suet is a high energy food which is great for attracting a wide variety of birds to your garden and feeders. In some cultures, a jackdaw on the roof is said to predict a new arrival; alternatively, a jackdaw settling on the roof of a house or flying down a chimney is an omen of death, and coming across one is considered a bad omen. A jackdaw standing on the vanes of a cathedral tower is said to foretell rain. The jackdaw was considered sacred in Welsh folklore as it nested in church steeples, it was shunned by the Devil because of its choice of residence. Nineteenth century belief in the Fens of England held that seeing a jackdaw on the way to a wedding was a good omen for a bride. In the video game Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, the main character's ship is named the Jackdaw. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces anger, fear, and stress and increases pleasant feelings. Exposure to nature not only makes you feel better emotionally, it contributes to your physical wellbeing. August is the last full month of Summer in Scotland and a prime time to explore Scotland's natural attractions with long daylight hours, upwards of 13 to 15 hours per day. This is one of the warmest months of the year, along with July, and you should expect some rain, though just how much depends on where you travel. The date for astronomical Summer in Scotland is Tuesday, 21 June, ending on Friday, 23 September. @tourscotland
