A loud tree

A telegraph pole a tree full of birds, a tradesman's van and a council terrace

Today, I heard this tree before I saw it. It was full of starlings, and they were loud.

I often see them around here. Sometimes they perch on TV aerials, sometimes on the ridges of roofs. I’ve had a few of them visiting my bird feeders. For all that I’m always half-expecting to see them, they’re always a surprise and delight.
