Parking Lot Starlett...

Description

Oops! I meant to say "STARLING."
====
But we all think of starlings as pests, and indeed, they are.

This one was in a parking lot at a strip mall in western Philadelphia.
He is so pretty!

Internet is up and running fast again. But now I have to get ready to leave. Will try to comment later this evening.

Awesome to hear you are up and going again! Yippeeeeee!!!

I don't know that we have these birds in Alberta? It reminds me of our woodpeckers minus the red ringed collar.

Very pretty and a Starlett to ME! :D

This one looks painted! Starlings remind me of a bunch of children quarreling and being utterly selfish. Love all the detail! #10867106
