Great shot in #1 Jason, and that's how I remember Starlings as a kid in #2. Not sure why people got upset with them, they are eating all the pests out of the grass, for free and without poison. ;)

Probably why starlings are in decline here, so many idiots use poison on their lawns. :(

They are not native to my area and take away from the Birds that are and they breed like rats........ but those are some good shots.
