European/Common Starling | Sturnus vulgaris
Call
These things are so cool—I just wish they were native! They can mimic human speech, have striking plumage, and congregate in huge, mesmerizing displays called murmurations. They have a bad rap for pushing out native American birds, but, they’re extremely well adapted to living alongside humans in ways that native populations can’t.
