EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by renowned wildlife photographer Dickie Duckett, we witness an extraordinary moment of avian parenthood in the stunning Shetland Islands. A proud Common Starling parent can be seen perched on a drystone wall, diligently feeding its hungry brood outside their cozy nest. The picturesque backdrop of Scotland's breathtaking landscapes adds to the charm of this heartwarming scene. As June brings forth warm summer days, these young European starlings are treated to a feast fit for royalty. With mouths wide open and wings fluttering with excitement, the adorable chicks eagerly beg for their next bite. Amidst the ancient stone walls that dot the Shetland Isles, nature's delicate balance unfolds before our eyes. The adult starling dutifully responds to each begging call from its offspring, ensuring they receive all the nourishment they need to grow strong and independent. This image serves as a reminder of how even in remote corners of our world, life thrives and families flourish. It encapsulates both the beauty and resilience found within Britain's diverse wildlife population. So let us celebrate this touching display of parental love as we marvel at these charming starlings' antics against Scotland's wild backdrop – truly a sight that warms hearts and sparks joy!
