Starlings have their place.Unfortunately, over here they shouldn't and they're bloody everywhere, along with Common Mynas.

Wha-?Hoopoes? Faaaahhhhk, those are the best birds ever. I nearly soiled myself with glee when I saw one. The chap I was birding with and I nealry fell off of our bikes when we saw it and though he'd seen dozens of them in his life, he was jabbering and pointing as much as I was.
