The European Starling is a medium-sized, black songbird with short, triangular wings, a short tail, and striking iridescent plumage speckled with white, especially in winter. During breeding season, adults display a yellow bill and a purple-green sheen. Native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, starlings were introduced to North America in the 1890s and now number over 200 million. Highly social, they form enormous flocks and perform mesmerizing aerial displays called murmurations. Starlings are accomplished mimics, able to imitate other birds and even human sounds. They are aggressive cavity nesters, often outcompeting native species for nesting sites.
