1. Birds - The Starling

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   The starling looks black when she is far off but her feathers are really tipped with a shiney green colour.
   The starling builds its nest in the eves of houses or in a hole in a tree.
   The starling lays five or six eggs and they are blue with white spots.
   A starling starling builds its nest with withered grass and mud and straw.
   A starling eats snails and flies and worms and young blades of wheat and corn.
   A starling sits on the eggs for two weeks or ten days and she can get off the eggs for about ten minutes because her eggs are thick shelled and they do not get cold as quickly as the wren's.
   The starling sings a song which is like the chattering of teeth and they usually come in the morning and sit on the chimneys and on the windowsills.
