Good Fences: Starling, April 13, 2017

Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, March 30, 2017
Dead vines from last year will soon be replaced by new growth along this fence.

European Starlings, Sturnus vulgaris, introduced in New York from Europe in 1890, are aggressive birds that compete with native North American birds for nesting sites and food.
But to their credit, they eat enormous quantities of insects.

Hope you are having a beautiful week!

    Nice shots of the Starling on the fence, chubby fellow. I bet the vines are pretty when they are green.
