Pity about the camera moving around...

Love starlings

They nest in our eaves every year, and love the fat balls I put out.

We had zillions, until the twat behind us cut ALL his trees down.

We used to see them regularly when I was a kid. In Surrey. They were beautiful. You rarely see them now. Along with moths and bumblebees. The Earth is slowly dying.

Not at the mouth if the Thames, thankfully. They still get huge murmurations, there.

I live at the mouth of the Thames. Never seen any here, and apart from 8 years in Ashford, I've lived here since 1988.

I'm talking about the north of the estuary, around Shoeburyness and Foulness. Even as far west as Pitsea. Especially at dawn.
