Starlings gather near coast, video


This video shows thousands of starlings, gathering on mud flats near Oostvoorne in the Netherlands.

They will eat a bit more, and then they will fly to their roost to sleep.

Monique Smulders made this video.

  3. Beste Nico,

    Ik kreeg bijgaande foto van één van mijn wekelijkse fotomail
    liefhebbers, de heer Wiebe van der Worp, toegestuurd.

    Hartelijke groet,
    Jan

    Nico: Het is een “leucistische” spreeuw, met veel witte veren dus en te
    weinig zwart pigment.
