Media notes
The starling featured here in the Oak tree..spent 45 minutes making "bomb-dropping" slide whistle type calls until all surrounding birds got annoyed and left. One robin let out a big scream before leaving and one Junco tried dive-bombing it before giving up and flying off. Starlings visit us yearly, but i dont RECALL hearing this type of "bomb-dropping" whistle before? Will be more attentive in the coming days.
