The starling gradually changing their colour into autumn plumage. The metallic sheen is replaced by dull brownish colour, but this bird on the photo still have some around the neck.

Free theme always fun seeing what is around currently, the Starling is gorgeous I have only seen this particular one once in the garden, although we do have many Starlings around.

Thank you, Joan! ❤🙂
Starlings here are numerous. I am still impressed of their ability to imitate other sounds. 😄

The free theme gives us loads of choices.

If you didn't mention that the bird in this post was a starling, I would never have guessed it. I didn't realize that their appearance changed so much as the cold weather approached, wonderful pictures.

Indeed, the choices are so many with the free theme. I am expecting again lots of photos.
Starlings looked better in spring and summer, I like the metallic colour and they look like they have the night sky on their plumage.

Ostriches running down our road. Little robins hatching in our workshop and a blue crane grazing with the sheep. Big choices indeed
