Sure, you may not like them, but it was a very interesting article. And OK, I actually do like starlings, as well as all the other "trash birds". When there are no other birds to watch, I can always enjoy watching a pigeon or a House Sparrow! Check out the article, and consider celebrating "Starling Day" every March 16th!
