Juvenile Starlings being fed
I managed to get a few shots last year of Juvenile Starlings being fed that I was pleased with.
This evening was the first juvenile I've spotted this year at my feeders. Unfortunately it wasn't on my well lit branch that they normally use but down in the ISO3200 shadows behind a wall.
Anyway - it's the first of the year and hopefully I'll get some better ones again over the coming weeks.

Thanks Richard
I was pleased to see one of the shots appear on the BBC Nature web page earlier today.

The last capture just knocks me out, the food and the feet grab your attention. How close were you to the birds?

These would have been about 12 feet or so away I guess.
