We& #39;ve got dozens and dozens of starling babies this year. I love starlings.
There& #39;s a certain lovely joy to watching them grow up. They start off completely awkward, being fed by the parents, looking as confused as Matt Hancock fielding a technical question in a press conference, but then get their confidence and start appearing in little youth gangs.
And then they become teenagers. And that& #39;s maybe the best bit.
Londoners: is there still a big flock at Kensington Gardens? I used to hand feed them for ages. Probably in a hundred tourists& #39; photos entitled "look at this mad tall bastard"
Starlings are red listed by the RSPCA. Their numbers have fallen by two thirds in recent decades. https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/wildlife-guides/bird-a-z/starling/population-trends-conservation/">https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and...
Almost every starling& #39;s favourite footballer is Fulham-era Geoff Horsfield. https://youtu.be/zUvbEMTeZxw ">https://youtu.be/zUvbEMTeZ...
Starlings often have a second brood so I& #39;ll be repeating this thread in July
