Now starlings have much longer beaks and are a light brown at baby's.

Im geussing you have a cowbird tho there very commen putting there eggs alover nests *rolls* but there still cute and are easy to realese back into the wild or you can keep it as a pet becase there not navtive to canada and plus there are too many lol.

Oh ya Im hoping you are feeding it the starling diet.

1 boiled egg.
1/4 apple sauce.
1 cup of dog food purina senior is good.
And 1 tums mint is ok.

Mix it up.
