European Starling

Sturnus vulgaris

One of the many species surviving the winter on our crab apples.
There is something quite striking about starlings in winter even though they are a much maligned bird in North America.

I always enjoy seeing Starlings. A beautifully composed shot, Ann.

Very true, Ann. You have to get the light just right though, as you did. V

Yes, I agree. Their winter plumage is especially beautiful, I think. If they were rare, even if not native, we'd all look at them differently! V

Toujours près à se régaler de ces petits fruits, une très jolie pose! V
