Okay, a lot of bird related drama today at work. A winter starling got stuck in the bird feeder!!!
Here’s how it unfolded:
Look at the bird on the top left:

He’s going inside the rectangular slot (I lost the lid yesterday so totally my fault
)

In he goes, mouth wide open… 

And now he’s stuck:


What gets me is his mates just flat out abandoned him! They just kept eating and then flew off leaving him stuck in there. Sounds like my mates! I had to pull the bird feeder off the window (he was scared, I was shitting myself, he eventually calmed down as he realised I was trying to free him, albeit stupidly
). I finally managed to pull the feeder off the window (stuck like fucking glue!) And it just fell and landed on the small roof below. He then flew out. Phew.
