common starling at Lake Meyer Park IA 116A7492
I was surprised to see this common starling at Lake Meyer Park today. I can usually count the number of times I see a starling in the park on one hand during any given year. Although many people consider the common/European starling a nuisance, and I guess they can be in certain settings, I think they are a beautiful bird. This colorful starling is close to being in full breeding plumage already.
