Starlings are Roman! Who Knew?

Remember in Ancient History class they mentioned the "Roman Bath Houses" where people sat around in the hot water and hashed out the Empire and its problems? Or more likely just gossiped and got smashed on wine.
Well it seems that Starlings must be Romans because here we are. I think I need a much bigger birdbath.

Roger, you have again, a very creative mind. I agree with you about the gossip and wine but I do not see any wine bottles in the birdbath. Funny captions for sure.

In those days wine came in big pottery "amphora" and the servants poured it into a cup or bowl and took it to the big shots. Things like these from the net - and it seems wine and beer aged in amphora as much as 5-6 feet tall is now a "thing" with the Wine and Beer snobs of the "better classes". None of this Bud and Gallo stuff for them.

Glad you like it. Two were back in the bath just a short time ago but I haven't downloaded yet. This time I tried to get some of the splashing.
