ROSE-COLOURED STARLING

I finally caught up with the very obliging juvenile Rose-coloured Starling at Lands End.
The last 2 pictures were all I could get of the Adult in Lizard Village 2 weeks ago.




The local Starlings don't seem very friendly!

  1. Looks like its being turned down entry by the starling border control guards! Despite all its pleading.

  2. A great record of your two sightings, John. I went after one of these in Wales once, but missed out, so it's still on my 'wanted' list.

    Best wishes to you both - - - - Richard
