A bird
I'm getting back into taking photos again after concentrating on exams, here's a photo of a bird (I'm not sure which species?) I took the other day.
I've found somewhere birds seem to 'hang out' at, this is my scouting out photo, I'll spend a few hours there and try and get my quality up.

Lovely shot of a Starling, some people describe these as boring I think they have beautiful feathers in some lights they are iridescent, wonder if you can catch that on a photo.

Yep - It's a starling.
I've always wanted to see the starlings 'swarming' as per this clip.
