Pics:Caught In the act!

Hi Everyone,

Now and again I put chopped grapes out for my feathered visitors.Today I did just that along with their usual munchies.After half an hour I looked out the window all grapes had gone.There was no way the Blackbird would have eaten them all,so later on I put more out and had the camera ready

Young Starling getting use to tray on the fence

 

Then the adult was caught In the act

 

Meanwhile baby wanting some grape

In the end It has a look for food on It's own

 

So now I know where all the grapes went earlier In the day!

  • Hi Littleowl, 

    lovely photos - they really can eat can't they?!

    My Starlings have taken a shine to the Blackbird's sultanas and can get through half a bag (250g) in an hour.

  • Great pictures littleowl.  You can guarntee that starlings will find any food you put out, very quickly. LOL
