Patty will make me throw it in the widow woman's weed garden with countless birds, squirrels, mice, and rabbits that have fallen victim in our yard over the last 25 years. LOL

Someday an archaeologist will dig up all them bones and wonder what kind of viscous animal killed them...

Starlings do migrate because there are thousands of them up here in the summer and you always see them gathering together in the fall when they are smart enough to leave the cold winter months...

Good evening Illinois, Jim, John, Shaun, and Michelle!

The cold has got its teeth dug in, 24° was our high today but will warm up enough tomorrow to give us a good dusting.

The breeding grounds must be further north of us but spring and fall there are thousands of them. My yard has been covered in them several times, see a lot of red winged black birds with them..
