Starlings

[Geoff Shannon <>]

Interesting series of reports. Here in W Tasmania no problems. Flock 550 in paddock last night. BUT the population in UK is falling and has been raised to RED status because of this.

From British Trust for Ornithology. More details on website.

Hi Michael,
We see large flocks of Starling in the Richmond Lowlands & Windsor areas. There are also small flocks at Sydney Olympic park & at all the Eastern suburbs beaches, so they are certainly still about in Sydney.

Hi everyone,

Where have all the European Starlings gone. ?   Once were thousands in Sydney, none. seen for a few years around Penrith, Springwood or elsewhere. Zero.

? Disease,  Have I missed  something ?

Their absence not a regret , just a mystery.

              TIA
