Oh, boy. Can of worms time.
You will find which many people here don't care for the European Starlings. They are an invasive introduced speceis, brought in by some moron who thought we comparatively needed more Shakespeare (sp?) in the states! I doesn't remember the exact story, although I think it's in the FAQ for this site, which I can find if people are usually interested, but it had to do with a fellow that tried to introduce species in the states that were referenced in Shakespearian works.
I admit starlings have some entertianing behaviour, but they also look for nooks, crannies, martin houses, anywhere they can nest.
Since you are new at birding, you will find many more fascinating birds to watch ad ID. To summarize have fun!
