Popular Post BAZ Posted March 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2021 Whilst in Melton this weekend, I stayed late to try and see the flocks of starlings the locals are talking about. What an amazing sight, I have no idea of numbers and there are various flocks around, three main ones, and these lose and gain birds as they move about. The locals cars are absolutely pebble dashed, some love them and others can't wait for them to go. The sheer scale of numbers was incredible. +Ibbo, +RonC, +Derbyshire Dave and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Glafnazur Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 This is something I'd love to see. I've seen numerous large flocks of starlings over the years but nothing to this scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I only get much smaller murmarations here and they generally result in a white dappled car (although the House Martins in summer are far worse!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
