We waited on the pier (where the roost) for a while and became a little bored, until we saw one solitary starling, and before long we were surrounded. Luckily there was just enough light for me to be able to get some photographs, the two below are my favorite :). Definitely an experience i would recommend and one i will never forget :).

Starling Murmuration
Over the weekend me and my girlfriend Debby to a trip to Brighton to see the famous starling murmuration. A great big gathering of starlings that happens every night through the winter. They are here is large numbers as some are migrants from Russia and Scandinavia.
