I don't have any! I rarely see them where I live.

Not sure wether to use a confused reaction, a sad reaction(why? I don’t like Starlings… or do I…:classic_wacko:), or a good old like. 

Edited by Snake Fingers
I went with a like.

It is a good thing! They are an invasive species, and awful for the environment.

Weren't they introduced because someone had the bright idea to bring a male and female of every bird mentioned in Shakespeare's  plays into Central Park, NY?  Hence the European Starling, the House Sparrow, and the Eurasian Collared Dove (and others I can't remember)

Like many of you, whenever I see starling that would make a good photo, I don't have my camera at the time, but then I don't go out of my way to get a good one because "I'll get them next time".  So the picture I have is meh

Whaa?  No starlings?! 😲  I'm guessing there are no farms near you?

I live in the country.I live on a homestead/farm and have only ever seen one flying over my house. If I drove about ten miles down the road, there is a church where a few of them nest every year.

Oh wow. I edited this photo such a long time ago...

And now the horrible crop is driving me insane. 😂 Guess that tells you how much I knew about editing back then...

I was going through some of my old photos, and I deleted many of them because of how crappy my cropping was (along with the quality of the pic.)

That's a great photo but this thread uses a 'Bird of the Week'  system.  Each week's new bird is posted on Sunday.  This week, we're doing European Starling.
