Another sky full of starlings at RSPB Ham Wall on the Somerset levels.

Today I was not sure where to go and watch, so I settled on the Tor View hide.  So many times this is in the middle of the action.  We are all so lucky that the RSPB and volunteers built this for us – fantastic!

First to enter the stage were these geese on their way home.
