Title: Starlings pigging out!
Post by: Bird Brain on November 06, 2009, 01:00:51 PM

Today, Lake Aquitaine, 12 noon.

6 Starlings in a small bare tree with bright orange berry clusters, totally pigging out and gulping the berries down!

Anyone know what type of tree this is?

Lake Aquitaine:  SE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Aquitaine Ave.

Bright orange berries?  It sounds like a (European) Mountain Ash (aka Rowan).
