Mysterious Starlings!

Starlings seem to be making a bit of a comeback: I don't think I ever spend any time outside without seeing a flock or two: at the moment our garden is full of them: probably thirty or forty at any time. These are about 70% juveniles, lounging around waiting for their long-suffering parents to feed them.

The mystery is: where do they nest and where do they go in the evening? They don't roost in any of the local large trees and there's no evidence of nesting nearby...

Still: very welcome and quite beautiful in the evening sunlight.
