Any Starling Roosts at the moment?? (1 Viewer)

[David Smith]

Due to several reasons I haven't travelled much recently. Last year I was thrilled/amazed to see the evening roosts at Marbury & Blackpool.
I have a family member that has never seen this sight and I want to take him so.............
Can someone please advise me.......
Is the evening roosting happening at Marbury at the mo' & if so whereabouts ?
Any other locations that give decent views ?
Thanks in advance.

Yes the Starlings are roosting again at Marbury CP though sometimes they move to Neumann's Flash or roost near the yacht club rather than in the normal reed bed. The Bittern is now back so may also be seen as the starlings arrive.

Had a walk over Runcorn Bridge last Sunday and whilst it wasn't a huge roost - maybe a few thousand - it was quite a spectacle up close - and they roost under the bridge as well as in the steelwork which I'd never spotted before.

Thanks for that.
I'd never thought of Runcorn Bridge so may give that a try as well as Marbury.
