Flock of starlings in a tree at dawn at Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge
Starlings at Dawn
Most birders in the United States dislike starlings because they aren’t native but have spread everywhere, displacing native birds in their wake. Many birders and non-birders alike dislike starlings because they sometimes gather in large, noisy flocks.

I came across this small flock early one morning on Ridgefield’s auto tour before the sun lit them up. I went for the silhouette since I had the strong graphical lines of the tree branches and birds.
