Storm and Starlings

Tuesday 28th February
Day 437

A funny old day today.... left home in snow and hail, to get to work - 30 miles away - in bright sunshine, no showers there until gone midday. Yet, on the way home I had to take advantage of the stormy light.... then an added bonus.

Starlings, after an absence of a couple of years here, are roosting locally. I timed it just right to capture the flight of the starlings with the wonderful light :)
