Spring Watch - Starling

A tiny, nimble, curious and quick British Wren taken yesterday at a rainy Springwatch 2018 location of Sherbourne Park in Gloucestershire. This little one was great fun to watch, entertaining me for quite some time by repeatedly disappearing and then popping up again nearby, little tail bobbing.....

Scientific name - Anemone Nemorosa

I have just returned from a trip abroard (more of this at a later date) to find this flickr mail -

Just love the tones...... Been to reedbeds at all different times of the year, late spring though and you get these gorgeous colours which change with the light... Just add a bird & I'm ecstatic!
