Ever the gymnast

I couldn’t resist posting this one last gymnastics capture. I’ve never seen starlings hanging upside down on trees before.

*****

We thought we’d see what Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens in Washington, D.C., was like in winter. Naturally all the lotuses and water lilies were gone, but we did find some birds during our walk around the extensive grounds.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
