Pollen faced Starlings

In a garden at Ballyellery,
 A few Starlings were feeding on on New Zealand flax and were covered in Orange pollen.
New Zealand Flax uses birds to pollinate and the Starlings bill shape seems to fit nicely.

Starlings on the move

Come late October flocks of Starlings can be seen everywhere

A Starling despute

The Starling that roosts and nests in my roof defends his territory with a brutal attack on an intruder.
Not the first time ive seen this action out of this Starling..

The Clahane Wall

Rock Pipits flit on and off the wall , Starlings congregate in small flocks. The wall in plastered in flys.
The seawall has been a valuable place to spot many birds easily over the years, also used as cover to observe the beach front and seaweed.
