Thank you, Ace Age, for your continous reporting about the starlings. :thumbs:

21:45 Starling sleeps and incubates the precious six eggs.

P.S. I have also a nestbox for starlings in my garden, but it is the second spring in a row that a male starling has no luck to find a female for a clutch. Makes me really sad...

Birdfriend, that is sad, but unfortunately, the population of starlings is decreasing.

All 6 eggs still intact. If I counted right we should be on hatch watch now.

Just now I had a view to all eggs, they look intact.

Edit: The cam changes from colour to black and white and converse. :puzzled:
