I have frightened Alfred,my foster cat

Thinkings and poems 1 Minute

WhStarling2015-2As  I was boiling some broccoli on the gas stove I received a phone call from abroad from a man claiming he had information about my computer problems.I had been strokng Alfred who was near me.Suddenly the  pan fell over spilling hot water onto my jeans and I screamed.Alfred has disappeared and so has the fraudster.So I am looking at this white starling and wondering if we have any in London or is this  one the only one in the world and if so perhaps Mike could become wealthy  by charging us all for looking at his photos!!

      1. Not quite right, since it has normal eyes (not pink, as in an albino). Technically, it is known as ‘Leucistic’. I’ve written an article about it at http://home.btconnect.com/mike.flemming/WStarling.htm

        I don’t expect to make money from it but, if anyone likes it a lot, then please do make a donation to help refugees! I have noticed that this white starling seems to be fully integrated into the local flock, despite its ‘different’ appearance.
