Awh, yea googled starling, looks just like it I'm terrible with identifying birds except pigeons [emoji38]Looks like a starling lovely photo !
Do you know if it's okay to feed them plain chicken? Google seems to think I mean actually chickens that are alive [emoji51][emoji51]Yes a starling,very pretty birds when seen up close.They have a sheen to their feathers.Adapted well to urban life and can be bold.Sadly like a lot of garden birds their numbers are in decline
Thanks, just wanted to make sure it really enjoyed the chicken [emoji38]Yes they are omnivores,though nothing salty.:thumb:
You know I don't think I've ever seen one of these in Essex.. This one was in Camden.Wow! Mum says they rarely see starlings round their area of Essex, used to get loads all year round
Is that from pesticides, urbanization, virus/bird flu, or something else?Sadly 70% drop in Starling figures Since the 70's
Now I know how a starling looks. I cannot believe it did not fly away.
We mostly get robins and sparrows; though we also see finches, hawks and blue jays once in a while. Last year I saw a few wild turkeys before they noticed me.
