It is a not so rare phenomenon, they are usually specimens of starlings, which are particularly concentrated in the countryside and which move during the day between cities, where it is warmer, to the countryside, where there is a greater abundance of food, feeding of fruit, earthworms and other insects. A phenomenon that in recent years is particularly visible probably due to an extraordinarily hot October which kept alive a multitude of insects of which the starling is greedy.
