This afternoon I hung up in my garden half of a coconut shell filled with strawberry-flavoured suet and various seeds, hoping to attract a few blue tits or perhaps a finch or two. Instead, within ten minutes what seemed like the entire local starling population had descended on it, becoming engaged in ferocious beak and claw combat. Watching through binoculars I was taken aback a little by the savagery of them. They could have taught Mike Tyson a thing or two. How there were no casualties, I'll never know.
