I'll probably not be real popular with this post but I'm raising a rescued baby Starling.
Hardly had any feathers when we found it. Hoping it turns out OK for the little one.
I love baby birds. Can't help but help them.

theyre an invasive species released during the shakespeer project...the goto nest that allready have eggs or baby birds and squish the eggs kill the birds and lay their eggs there....watch this



the babies instinct is to play dead ...this is a rare occurance because the starling lost to the purple martins (well it gave up) 9.9 out of 10 times the starlings use their beaks to kill the and long legs to hold them down.


steve if you want to do nature a favor KEEP IT AS A PET!!! DONT LET IT GET LOOSE!

That is the plan. I understand your concern and can appreciate it.
I didn't know this about Starlings.

Sorry, I can't watch the video. Your description was enough.

Starlings and scrub jays. That's two birds found around my parts that just annoy me to no end. Both are perfectly legal to... well, they're not protected, let's put it that way.

I don't think I could bring myself to rescue either one.

But crows aren't protected either and I raised one when I was a kid. The only thing I found annoying about that one was his ability to outsmart me now and then. Little turd learned to help with jigsaw puzzles for cryin' out loud, and he knew what he was doing!
