The Starling, also known affectionatly as the "Flying
Rats of the Sky" are a much maligned song bird that bring "a little bit of England" to all of North America. Pictured below is a radar picture of these cute adorable song birds, and although some claim that there are too many Starlings, the radar picture shows very clearly that there is room for many many more in our skys. |

The common rat, a close
relative to the Starling, studies show that rats and Starling have 99.97% identical DNA. |

Bird feeders will attract these sweet song birds, as will hedges and
bird houses with large holes. If you are looking for their nests they like to build them on the top of hedges and with a little practice are easy to find. They are also attracted to swiming pools as well as both new and clean cars. |
