And what to my wondering eyes should appear but 1,000's of Starlings over shadowing the morning sun.

From treetop to treetop they paused only for a moment .

Before swooping to the ground to get right to work feeding on whatever they could find.



It's funny how there always seems to be 1 or 2 that stay behind and make my yard their winter home. It makes me wonder where the large flocks really settle down.
As I left for market they were heading over the creek to the neighbors already.
Market was slow today,maybe Saturday will be a better day.
Ran errands after market and looked for a new mixer. No one in town seems to have the one I want, I want the Kitchenaid Pro 600 which is a 6 quart size. I have to call Ace Hardware tomorrow and if they don't have it ,I found it in a couple stores in Asheville.
Hubbie and daughter went to a new dentist this afternoon and they both really like him.
We arrived home about the same time. After we unloaded the van,daughter made supper while hubbie and I did chores.
Daughter is in the Christmas spirit tonight already putting up her decorations and listening to Christmas music. Still a little early for me, I like Thanksgiving decorations.
It was 29 degrees this morning with a very heavy frost and the high today was 54 but sunny.
Grateful to God for His never ending love .
Good Night and God Bless.

Ugh----hope those nasty Starlings don't come here.... Yuk... Hope they move on ---far away from you also...
No frost here yet.... The roses are still alive... Crazy since it is Nov. 18.
Hugs,

I have to admit the Starlings are pretty but I totally dislike this imported bird. Super pictures of these rascals!
We have had light frosts...but my Knock-out Roses are still blooming like Betsy's! This is odd for Nov.
Well wishes to you and yours!
Great captures of this little liked bird...but it must have a purpose.
First snow here today and our starlings seem to have moved on, no more crops to eat I guess
They arrived here just about 1 hour ago. Dixie ran barking to the kitchen window and I got my camera and headed outside. Guess what? I need a new camera . . . it would not take a single picture.
Blessings,
Bren
