Starlings gathering

Postby alison on Wed Jan 02, 2013 7:03 pm

I guess it is the time that the starlings are moving on as the sycamore tree was half covered with them this morning. As I opened the door to let out the cat I could hear so much bird song that I had to see what was going on. Right on every branch on one half of the tree were lots of starlings. After a while of more gathering they finally all flew off together. It did make me realise how much they have declined though as a few years ago the tree was covered over both sides of the tree on every single branch. Now only half that many. It was still a spectical to behold though.
