Is this a starling?
We are in Pennsylvania 1 hour northwest of Philadelphia. We have had our feeder up since spring and have not seen any of these until two days ago, 8-12-11. They are about 8 inches long from head to tail. We are now getting overrun with them and they keep all of our regualar pretty birds away when they are here even our Downey and Redheaded woodpeckers.
