European Starling #9740

White Rock, NM

Sturnus vulgaris

We don't have as much of a problem with Starlings as many do. We see one or two crawling around in the grass every day or so, but not the flocks of dozens of birds. They did find the end of a suet block I had out, something with a bit of peanut butter in it, and they polished it off in two days. While that was going on, I had large numbers of them around. We are also seeing juveniles, so they are breeding happily in the area.
