| | | Starlings on the wires.
Took this a couple of weeks' back on a foggy September day. 
Their cheerful chatter made light of the grey day.
How many can you count?
Answer to follow after the weekend! |

There were 182 birds.
44 on the top wire, 75 on the middle wire and 63 on the lower wire.
They were so busy chattering amongst themselves they took no notice of me, even when I was stopped my vehicle, got out and took the photo!  |
