Fine capture Julia. The poor old Starling us seen so often that most people tend to ignore it but in reality its a very handsome bird; as your excellent shot shows.

Not only a handsome bird, but what which is becoming severely depletedSad

You have nailed the iridescent plumage perfectly JuliaSmile, though I would have liked to have seen a tad more catch-light in the eyeWink

The starlings do have such attractive plumage with those iridescent patches: lovely crisp shot, Julia.
