European Starlings by Dendroica cerulea on Flickr.

Some people in the USA hate starlings for using bluebird nest sites. They didn’t ask to be brought to the USA. They are simply living their starling lives and they are inquisitive, beautiful and gregarious creatures. Except when they poop their nasty poop on my car. Then I hate them too.
