I love starlings! I think they’re so funny. I think most of these were still juveniles. I was watching them landing on and taking off from the telephone wires. I waited until they were all looking the same way, which lasted for a second!

Very cool, with perfect composition/crop and title!
Haha! Love the title. And this minimalistic image is cool.
Vanessa, this is a fine “birds-on- the-wires” view. While turning this into a two tone version would fit your title even better, getting some detail in the birds is a good choice. It’s good that all were looking in the same direction.
I love it, Vanessa. So perfect for b&w. Great catch. The slanting powerlines are so much better than if they’d been straight or if you cropped them that way.
Thanks @Diane_Miller @Mark_Muller @Mark_Seaver @Kris_Smith for your comments! Glad you think the starlings work!
