We have been getting visits from a new species of bird at our feeders, the European Starling. These birds zoom around in a tight flock and are noisy, aggressive, quick-moving birds that remind us of a bunch of punks that get what they want by pushing all the other birds out of the way. However, they are also stunning to see! We've been taking pictures from our kitchen window through the glass and this is a collage of a bird flying up to land on a wire crook under one of the feeders. They aren't really clear but I thought they were neat enough to share as a collage! I hope you like them! :)

I have two other images uploaded today that I hope you'll take the time to see!

Thanks to all of you who have visited and have left comments and favorites! I try to go to all of your pages within a day or two and is a highlight for me to see your beautiful photography! :)
