Lovely sight! They are one of my favourite birds. I have raised three of them after they were found as bits of flotsam on the ground. The Minahs push them out of the nest.

I've never seen a murmuration of starlings so this is good enough for me. Keith.

Well captured Keith. Many years ago, before I carried a camera everywhere, I wondered why there were so many cars parked along a narrow road on the Levels near Glastonbury. My daughter and I stopped and saw what they were waiting for. The murmurations they had all come to see were fantastic. I have been since with a camera but yet to get a good picture. I am enjoying yours though :-))

Glad you like this one Rosa. The starlings hang about near the cattle on the marshes..........apparently there's some tasty stuff in cow-pats!

Und wenn sie einen Kirschbaum finden, kann man sich die Ernte sparen.
Ich wünsche dir ein schönes Wochenende, Keith!

Nicely captured, works well against the band of cloud in the background. There seem to be a lot of Starlings around this year which is really good to see.

I think starlings the all over the world must be pretty similar in their actions Dinesh. I'm glad you like the image and thank you.
