European Starling

European Starling
This image is so heavily cropped, LOL, but I so rarely manage to photograph a Starling, so wanted to add this one to my Birds of Alberta Set. Though not popular birds, they have spectacular feather patterns and irridescence. Caught this one sitting on a very high wire just south west of the city a few days ago. European Starlings first appeared in Alberta in 1934 and have been regular visitors ever since. A good thing about this photo is that it reminds me what BLUE sky looks like, LOL! The last few days have been so cold and grey, sometimes with a little snow, and the forecast for the next few days points to more of the same.
