99% of birds in my garden are starlings.
Same here. Have stopped putting out suet blocks now, as they just swamp the garden non-stop until they've eaten the lot. Also appears to stop other visitors.
My mum and dad have a telephone line pole in there back garden, when I was a young'n there used to be masses of them all sat on the lines making loads of noise and gobbling up all the food! Now probably 10 years on they get next to none!! Which is good because now they get lots of other stuff!!
Although a starlin is on my list of birds to picture!!
No shortage of them around here (Aberdeenshire)
They're certainly not in decline here.
We have a flock that must number in the thousands fly over the house every morning and back at dusk to roost.
(Same place as Andy - they seem to head over to Tredegar Park during the day)
Ever seen the murmurations?
