November 25th

 

chatter and whistles

starlings gossip on the line

animated dusk

The vocal range of starlings is pretty impressive. There were four whooping and whistling and chattering to one another. Their mimicry is impressive, they can even copy people’s speech with enough exposure. You can youtube examples of this, but be warned, their voices are proper horror film evil sounding.
