Big and small #30dayswild

I rescued a juvenile Starling from the wood burning stove this morning.  It had fallen down the chimney.  It was very much a Starling but I was surprised to see it had brown feathers, with no iridescent feathers yet.  It flew off very strongly, so seemed none the worse for its adventure.  I hope it isn't there again tomorrow.

I watched a young Raven, climbing up the steep hill beside the road on the way to Calgary.  It was not flying at all, just stepping and hopping up. 

We have a Blue tit family in the bird box beside the porch.  I haven't mastered getting the photographs off the camera app into my Photo library but when I do I will post some photographs, they are growing so fast.
