The Starling is one of my least favorite birds. Since a Brit brought
them across the pond, they have prospered beyond belief and have become
a nuisance. Traveling in flocks, they can empty feeders quickly. Even
a suet block put out for woodpeckers can be torn to pieces in short
order. But, while hoping for a woodpecker, and trying burst shooting
for the first time, I fired away at my first customer. I had purposely
balanced the feeder gate to limit the access of larger birds, since they
scatter seed widely. The Starling struggled to find a spot where he
could feed, and never came to the front side of the feeder. He actually
looked more elegant peering out from behind the feeder.
