Another Rose-coloured Starling in Barnsley!

This photograph was taken by Mr & Mrs Marsden in their Hoylandswaine garden on Chapel Road. The photograph was taken on 28th June and the bird was present from 26th to 28th June 2020.

The sighting has just come to light this week when the photograph was shown to Hoylandswaine resident Alan Archer and clearly shows an adult type Rose-coloured Starling.

This is the fourth record in the Barnsley area during the 2020 invasion into the UK and follows these earlier ones;-

Cudworth, 4th to 6th June

Adwick, 7th June

Birdwell, 8th to 16th June
