What a great photo Pimpernel. Wish all the Starlings would go to Asda and stop pinching ALL the food I put out for the birds :o)

maybe right!!!

its a fabulous photo, he looks almost tame.

I agree :))

They are very nearly tame Sticki, when you go to take a trolley they just hop on to the next one back. I prefer the other photo that shows how colourful they are.

He looks frozen, poor thing! Wonderful photo, P. We don't see starlings here, and tend to forget quite how beautiful they are in their own right. If anyone is interested, there is an amazing little film of them in flight on:- http://www.flixxy.com/amazing-starlings.htm
A flock of them is known as a "murmuration", apparently. Now THERE's a lovely word for you, Nosey! I hope you enjoy it.
