Starling on blue
This little starling joined us for breakfast one morning at the harbor (or was it afternoon?). I know they are considered pests, are a non-native species and all that but I found this guy and his brothers and sisters quite beautiful. This group of starlings also tended to be pretty attentive to us a humans-- what would we put up with? Would we feed them if they hung around and acted cute? What would earn a tiny crumb from our plates?
