Tour Scotland short 4K Spring Friday wildlife nature camera travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a male Blackbird spotted eating and drinking on afternoon visit and trip to the grounds of my Scottish cottage garden in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. The male blackbird is all black except for a yellow eye ring and bill . This widespread bird is a common visitor to United Kingdom gardens, and has adapted well to suburban areas, it’s often possible to get quite close. It can also be found in woodland and grassland areas, but you’re much less likely to see it on areas of higher ground and in some parts of Scotland, Common and widespread across Britain, the blackbird population is currently stable, although it has seen periods of decline in the past. One of the biggest threats is lack of food availability, particularly when the weather is dry. Leaving mealworms and ground feeder mix out on bird tables and planting bushes that attract caterpillars to your garden are great ways to help blackbirds. If you were to believe various myths and folktales, you’d find this solitary, territorial bird to be imbued with evil and supernatural powers. Welsh poet R. S. Thomas observed that there was “ a suggestion of dark Places ” about the blackbird that was at odds with its beautiful song. In the story of the life of Saint Benedict, the Devil was said to have come to tempt the saint in the form of a blackbird. The English nursery rhyme “ Sing a Song of Sixpence ” involves blackbirds “ baked in a pie ” which reanimate and sing when the pie is opened.

The magpie bird is one of our most familiar birds and the source of much myth and legend: '" ne for sorrow, two for a joy "is a rhyme that many children learn. Magpies are, in fact, small crows, and are omnivorous, feeding on carrion, invertebrates, and chicks and eggs. They are sociable birds and are often seen in small groups across many habitats, from gardens to parks, and heaths to hedges. The magpie is an unmistakeable long tailed bird. It is mainly black, with a white belly and white patches on the shoulders and wings. Folklore surrounds the magpie: from providing good luck when greeted, to being in league with the Devil, its ubiquitous presence has provided plenty of opportunities for stories. Many surround religion, including the belief that it didn't mourn with all the other birds at Christ's crucifixion, and that it refused to enter Noah's Ark, preferring to stay on the roof and swear for the whole journey.

Tour Scotland short 4K Spring Friday wildlife nature camera travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a lovely Woodpecker Bird spotted drumming for food on morning visit and trip to my Scottish cottage garden in Scone by Perth, Perthshire,Britain, United Kingdom. Woodpeckers are birds known for their distinctive drumming behaviour and chisel shaped beaks, which they use to excavate wood for food and nesting cavities, and they have adaptations like strong feet and stiff tail feathers to help them cling to trees. 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. Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces anger, fear, and stress and increases pleasant feelings.
