In Search of Snowbirds | Starling The Common Starling’s winter coat displays many colors as the winter light shines through it. Their feathers make a winter day more colorful. They are loud, boisterous, loud birds that travel large flocks. They eat mostly insects and fruit. And, they are messy birds; leaving discarded berries from our crabapple tree, everywhere.
The Back Story Some days the image comes to you. This simple click was captured during lunch. With part of a large flock in our crabapple tree, capturing a decent image was relatively easy.
