    I love watching these cheeky fellows - so beautiful! It makes a dull trip to the supermarket much more fun.

    Really didn't appreciate them until I started photographing them, as that's when I realised how striking their plumage was.

    I have to say that I love photography as I'd never really 'seen' what nature has to offer until I got into it. It does make you really notice stuff that you would normally take for granted

    Yes, the Starlings can vary during the year - even before I got into photography I used to see that well when I had Starlings in my roof (very poopy customers!). The 'stars' will wear off the males as they go in and out of the nest feeding the little ones, for instance. They could end up looking very bedraggled
