Starving Starling by skipt07

Starving Starling

I saw this single startling fly to what was once a seed bell. When I saw how iridescent its coat was I clicked off one shot before it flew away.
Many thanks for your kind comments and favs of my, "Even on Rainy Days". It has made an appearance on the Trending Page!
Like how the sack color matches some of his iridescent color - nice detail. How did you find just one!! Fav

@quietpurplehaze - They normally do ours too. I looked out today and there was only one. Don't know what happened to its friends?

@pyrrhula - I have seen flocks of these that are so many you could never count them. I can understand how they could strip trees and bushes of there fruit.

I think because they're much maligned, many people don't realise just how besutiful they are... as your splendid photo shows.
