Aberystwyth, Wales, UK. 06th Dec, 2014. At the end of a grey overcast cold December day people in silhouette watch as flocks of starlings come in to roost on the cast iron legs of Aberystwyth pier at sundown. The murmuration of tens of thousands of birds is a nightly occurrence in the skies above the town and attracts photographers and bird watchers from all over the country. The Aberystwyth roost is, apparently, one of only three urban starling roosts in the UK Starling numbers are in decline across the UK. Credit: keith morris/Alamy Live News
