Startled By Starlings - Blog Posts

A few days ago, I was prepping garden starts in my dining room when I saw something strange in the sliding glass door to the backyard. Shadow after shadow after shadow fell across the glass as something—or, rather, a lot of somethings—was decending on my front lawn.

I turned and went to the front window to see SO MANY STARLINGS (and one scrub jay) pecking at the grass.

They were there for roughly twelve seconds, and then as quickly as they had come, they were gone.

It was the first time I had seen that in my home (rather than a park or woods), so I'm glad I managed to get pictures!
