Starling Starlings At Nest Metallic Starling


Feathers of Steel - The Metallic Starling's Urban Oasis!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by the talented Don Hadden, we witness a mesmerizing sight straight out of an avian wonderland. Meet DH-3117, the dazzling Metallic Starling, as it proudly perches on its meticulously crafted nest in the heart of urban Cairns, Queensland. With its iridescent plumage shimmering under the Australian sun, this charismatic bird is a true showstopper! Its metallic sheen reflects shades of emerald green and sapphire blue, leaving us in awe of nature's artistic palette. But what makes this photograph truly extraordinary is the starling's choice to build its home amidst towering skyscrapers and bustling city life. Who needs trees when you can have a penthouse view? This audacious avian has found solace in an unconventional habitat – embracing modernity while maintaining its wild spirit. As we marvel at DH-3117's resilience and adaptability, let us not forget that even within concrete jungles like Cairns, nature finds a way to thrive. It serves as a gentle reminder that beauty can be discovered in unexpected places if we open our eyes to appreciate it. So next time you find yourself strolling through urban landscapes or gazing up at towering structures overhead, keep your senses sharp for these remarkable creatures who dare to defy convention. After all, who said birds couldn't enjoy city living too?
