Waiting for mum

 I can't find her anywhere, not up there?
 Ah, here she comes with her goodies, yummy.

  3. The neck feathers are something I've noticed on adult starlings as well. I haven't seen one in a long time. This kind of bird is a good old familiar sight.

  4. Hello, cute shots of the Starling chick. I think the last shot it is saying "feed me". Have a happy day!

  12. A few days ago we saw a small baby of some type land next to one of our robins--- and do the feed me feed me thing. It clearly wasn't a Robin. The little guys do get confused sometimes. Nice pictures as always, Bob.

  16. Juvenile Starlings are very cute at first, Bob, but when we get 10 to 20 of them all day they drive me nuts after a month or two with the racket they make and their disturbance of the other birds. We always end up saying we'll be glad when winter comes and they all go off to murmurate somewhere else.

    With my best wishes - - - Richard

  18. Los estorninos que en algunas ciudades se han convertido casi en una plaga cuando acuden a dormir a parques y jardines.
    Un abrazo,
