A first for me and what a surprise. A rosy starling in the garden this morning.

Fantastic. I hope the video cameras caught it.

Didn't have the usual influx of young sturks this year. They are around but just not coming to feed in usual numbers.

Had lots of juveniles here. But now adults and young ones seem to have moved on. Not getting many at the moment.

Had some young sturks yesterday. Now they are gone again.

They do that nowadays No loyalty like time gone by.

Only see my lot around twice a day now.

My starling numbers seemed to have gone down by quite a lot. Not complaining though.

Since the fledging season my numbers of Starlings have dropped right down. The last two weeks I haven't seen any but today I saw seven on the bird table. I see plenty flying around in small flocks but they rarely come to see what's on offer.

Yes JS, the flocks here are a lot smaller here have noticed.

See them flying around in the area. Only one comes into the feeders.
