WOW!! Since we started the #murmurationmap in November 2014 it has clocked up over 600000 views! That is WAY more than Sarah and I ever anticipated when we started it. THANK YOU ALL.

Also, thank you to those of you that continue to send in details regarding Starling Roost locations, be it updates, new locations or those that are no longer being used by the birds.

Here is the list we have of Active sites. If you know any different or of some need to be deactivated please let us know. Thank you

There have been videos and photos posted on our Facebook shows hundreds of thousands of Starlings now gathering and roosting just south of Gretna Green.
Over the last couple of years they seem to have been split but the footage and reports show an impressive sight as the come in to roost.

The marker on the Murmuration Map has been moved slightly south of where they were last year but still on the same road, just north of the Metal Bridge roost site.

http://www.starlingsintheuk.co.uk/roost-map.html 

As always, this isn't the definitive list of Starling Roost locations, only those we have been told about of found on the various Social Media platforms. 
So, October 2019 saw the start of the Murmuration Map again for this season and we have had some of the regular roost locations as well as quite a few new locations for the map too, which is good.
for a couple of the reserves that the Starlings use, these have had their Starlings arrive about a month earlier than previous years with some in greater numbers too. 
All sites should see numbers grow over the next few weeks as more migrating birds come to the UK to join our resident Starlings so the map should turn more and more red by the end of next month. 
Here is the list of locations on the map as of 31st October 2019.......
