Otmoor Starling Roost

Good evening everyone,

The starling roost tonight numbered an estimated 15,000 birds. They did a small/short sky dance before seeking shelter in the reedbed.

There was also plenty of fieldfares and redwings moving around, a sparrowhawk, and lots of interesting prints in the snow.

Otmoor can be scenically spectacular in the winter, but do take care on the icy roads, and wear something that can withstand bitterly cold winds!

Cheers,

Gareth Luscombe
Assistant Warden
