What do starlings eat? How do you differentiate between males and females or even the young? We answer these and other questions about the star in our large species portrait<\/strong> .<\/p>\n

\"Common<\/p>\n

The common starling is one of the most common birds in the world<\/p>\n

The common starling ( Sturnus vulgaris<\/em> ) is a common bird in the truest sense of the word. Because it is not only a frequent visitor to our parks and gardens, but is also one of the most widespread and most common bird species in the world. Its shimmering plumage, the large song repertoire and the elegant swarm formations make it a real “star” among songbirds. However, all of that could soon change. Because the stocks of the star have been falling sharply for several decades. As a result of the increasing intensification of agricultural areas and the use of pesticides, the star is gradually losing its habitat and its food base. In the meantime, the species has even been classified as “endangered” on the red list in Germany. To draw attention to this dramatic development, the star was voted “Bird of the Year 2018”.<\/p>\n
