Over the last few days we’ve had a large number of starlings swooping, feeding and making a real noise from daybreak to nightfall a couple of gardens away. They seem to be very localised, and we have only heard and seen them in this one specific area.
I don’t find them particulary-attractive birds, but they must like each other!

They tend to do this, perhaps because there is a tree that the flock particularly likes. Seen close up their colouring is wonderful, but not generally appreciated!
