I enjoyed an extra hour not having to see the tree in front of my house covered in nasty, ugly, disease-carrying, garbage-eating, native-bird-killing (many unladylike words go here) STARLINGS. I'm in the US, where they're an invasive species--they are the reason Western Bluebirds do not nest in town any more; those that did were killed for their nest sites by starlings and the equally invasive Eurasian House Sparrow. The native robins and Cedar Waxwings have found the tree; I'm hoping the waxwings come back and strip the other half of it soon. The robins prefer the fallen berries.
