Dave and Col spent a couple of pleasant and useful hours at Belvide yesterday at the Starling roost. we again tried the Swedish starling call and again it was very successful. Mindful of the fact there were only two of us we almost certainly went in too early, but we called it right and a catch of 20 starlings and 4 reed buntings was just about right.
It's useful that there is a smaller offshoot of the main reedbed in the SE corner which doesn't disturb the main roost and any members who come to see it.
We will be trying again--probably over the holiday period.
