We know, in fact, that the starling is our greatest mimic, and that he often succeeds in recognizable reproductions of single notes, of phrases, and occasionally of entire songs, as, for instance, that of the blackbird.— A Shepherd's Life Impressions of the South Wiltshire Downs
Old men in the country have told me that forty or fifty years ago it was common to hear people on the farms say that of all birds the starling was the best to eat When starling and sparrow shooting-matches declined, the starling went out of favour as a table-bird, and from that time thyspecies has been increasing.— Birds in Town and Village
Starling has been looked up 326 times, favorited once, listed 30 times, and commented on once.
