Does this improve reception?

This isn't my usual sort of picture but I had stopped to see 4 House Martins flying around these houses. It is late for House Martins around here as most had gone a few weeks ago, these could have been passing through as the weather had closed in on the surrounding hills with strong gusty wind.

These Starlings were chattering happily to each other on the rooftops . It was just a quick snap really, the light was very odd so I'm surprised how well it turned out. I haven't processed it much just a bit of structure.

Still looking for Winter Thrushes. Reports of Redwing and Fieldfare getting closer so hopefully they will turn up soon.
