Starlings. [Sturnus vulgaris] As omnivores, these two were happily tucking into the seed and mealworms ... These are the birds that fly displays known as murmuration just before roosting as a flock. The roost can be a noisy and messy location, as can any area used during the breeding season.

A starling with a beak full of seeds / mealworms ... Feeding time for their partner or maybe babies ?

this camera is weird at times - it has recorded only part of the starling on the left, whilst the one on the right obviously stood still for long enough to be recorded.

Juvenile starling [Sturnus vulgaris] as it still has some "baby brown" feathers on neck and head. One of several about the car park & cafe area, some were sunning themselves, but other juveniles - and a few adults - were kept busy checking for dropped food etc around the cafe area. [amusingly, one of the adults was imitating a common mobile ring tone as part of it's repertoire of songs]
