Woodpecker Bird On Early Autumn Sunday Visit To My Cottage Garden Scone Perth Perthshire Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K early Autumn Sunday wildlife nature camera travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a woodpecker bird spotted eating Suet on a visit and trip to my Scottish cottage garden in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Great spotted woodpeckers can be seen in woodlands, especially with mature broad leaved trees, although mature conifers will support them. They can also be found in parks and large gardens. They will come to peanut and Suet feeders and bird tables. Not found in the far North of Scotland. Only a handful of pairs nest in Ireland, but numbers are increasing. Common in England and Wales. Legend says, if you ever see a red-headed woodpecker it will always move to the opposite side of the tree away from you because it is hiding in shame. People of varying spiritualities see a woodpecker as a friend when they're lonely. When one visits them, they gain inner strength to persevere through whatever challenges affect their daily lives. Meteorological Autumn is different from standard and astronomical Autumn and begins September 1 and ends November 30. The equinox at which the sun approaches the Southern Hemisphere, marking the start of astronomical Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. The time of this occurrence is approximately September 22. @tourscotland All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
