Feed me!

Feed me!, originally uploaded by Laura Whitehead.

Have a fair few (noisy!) starling youngsters in the garden currently.

Apart from their loudness, they are rather fun to watch. Very toddler like currently and full of character, exploring everything and anything to test out if its edible, or if they can bath in it, or stand on or in it. Even though they are quite loud and occupy many of the feeding areas, the other birds don’t mind too much and manage still to nip in and get a good feed too. The blackbird youngsters (currently at 6!) are in throughout the day too, along with the young blue tits, great tits and lots of young sparrows too.

Thankfully though, these quirky little youngsters all head off back to their roost fairly early in the evening, which brings a ‘calmness’ back to the garden and all the others then come out for their relaxed evening feed.
