Juv Starlings being fed
I put out some bird cakes in the garden at the weekend in the hope of attracting some juvenile Starlings for 'feeding' shots.
Blimey - I under estimated how many would come
- I could have done with some ear plugs not to mention a jet washer to clean the place up afterwards 
Anyway - here's a few from the ones I've looked at so far.

Beautifully photographed, good feather detail. I love Starlings, much maligned butgreat characters, when the young starlings start to moult into adult plumage they are fantastic birds, very colourful.

Thanks for the comments folks
I just noticed that number 9 is currently showing on the BBC Springwatch TV Red Button which is nice.
