In the evening light this bird looks golden.

Beautiful
There's some lovely colours in the Starling.
The whole scene is very nice.

Is that a home made bird bath arrangement?

Thank you Richard. The 'arrangement' is a fibreglass imitation slate double waterfall, with a shallow pool at the top, and a deeper one about 12 inches below. This empties into the main pond. The smaller birds tend to bathe at the top, while bigger ones, pigeons mainly, go for the lower level. I make it up rather as a film set, to show off my little visitors for my camera. It has been there for some years, in various guises, and is popular with the local wildlife.
