We were in east London visiting with friends, and when I went into the back garden a very small bird flew up from the ground into the foliage growing up around the fence. I took a quick photo, thinking it was a fledged wren- they had nested there back in the spring.
It wasn't until I enlarged the photo on the computer that I realised it wasn't a wren... it looks like a young starling, but it was far too small.
It's hard to tell in this photo, but it was not as big as a sparrow... I wasn't even sure I caught it- just pointed and clicked.
