During the summer months, the foliage of lime trees (<em>Tilia</em>) can become covered with elongate red tack-like galls on the upper side of leaves. This is due to the feeding activities of a gall mite.

I am able to read the ring number from the left leg. I have reported the sighting to the local Ringing group. They have said that they should be able to ID the bird.

I have had a reply from the Ringing group that I emailed.
"Many thanks for reporting one of 'my' starries. On having a close look at your photos, it is ZB6, a juv female ringed in my garden at Wellington Park, Montrose, on 29/5/23. One of eight ringed that day. I have now ringed over 9200 starries."
By road, Montrose is 84 miles from my place. Must be 50-60 miles, as the Starling flies. Remarkable, for a bird only a couple of months old.
