Yes, a Common Starling. Best thing to do with it is to euthanize it!

Hi Maryanne and David,
We have just had a bird dropped off to us - picked up by a couple walking the Greenway. Not sure what it is. Just wonder if you can ID it?
Maryanne - maybe give Lesley a call to see what to do. The baby bird is feeding on wet mince/insectivore.
Cheers
Phil (& Lesley)
