Starling Sturnus vulgaris using a bird bath in a garden Smaller than blackbirds with a short tail pointed head triangular wings starlings look black at a distance but when seen closer they are very glossy with a sheen of purples and greens Their flight is fast and direct and they walk and run confidently on the ground Noisy and gregarious starlings spend a lot of the year in flocks Still one of the commonest of garden birds its decline elsewhere makes it a Red List species
