Garden - 10.7.19
After a couple of abortive visits up to Malham in the Yorkshire Dales to try and replicate some of the fantastic images seen recently of the newly fledged Peregrine Falcons, I'm having a more relaxed day at home to sort some gear out and do a little image editing.
It's raining off and on but that doesn't seem to stop the Starlings from emptying the suet and fat ball feeders on a daily basis. Juvenile Starlings unlike the adults are not the most stand out of birds in terms of plumage, but I've noticed a few wet individuals carrying out some maintenance which might be worth getting the camera out.
With the patio door open and TV on in the background I'm doing a spot of multitasking, some image editing, keeping tabs on the tennis and when the opportunity presents itself some photography. There must be twenty noisy Starlings all squabbling for a prime spot on the feeders, so with 500mm lens on the 30mp 5D4 the images are frame fillers in the camera.
In the light rain one or two individuals are busy untangling some of the saturated plumage, something a little different to the usual pose. Sometimes you don't have drive endless miles to get an image, bird photography in comfort, right another cup of coffee !

Juvenile Starling
Juvenile waiting for the adult to shove food down it's mouth, I would have shown the adult but I chopped its tail off !
