Description

Starlings are an invasive species in North America and wreak havoc on native cavity nesting species by taking over available nest sites. However, they are quite adaptable to a variety of environmental conditions and this one has its feathers puffed out to provide additional insulation on this subzero winter day. In winter, new feathers are adorned with cream colored spots and these light colored spotted areas werar off as spring approaches.
