Starling Roost Count
Just before Christmas, BirdLife Malta volunteers counted over 29,000 wintering Common Starlings across Malta and Gozo, with the largest roost recorded at Junior College, Msida.
These important counts help us understand bird populations and highlight the value of urban trees that provide vital winter shelter.
Do you know of another roost site? Let us know in the comments for next year’s survey.
