Next-door starling

I had never seen starlings in our neighbor’s yard until this year, and now they’re there all the time. Down a few houses at their feeder, too.

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

Gorgeous close up of this one, Helen. It is like that here now too where I rarely saw them and while I wouldn't say we have an overwhelming number of them, we definitely see them more often. ~BV~
