CLOSED: Another Black Bird

Aurora, CO(Zone 4a)

Sorry - It's me again. We've had a number of black birds lately that keep surprising me by turning out to be a Red-Wing blackbird, a Spotted Towhee, etc. I can tell Grackles in an instant, but this one grabbed my attention because of the yellow bill and a little white spot on the wing. Raining in biblical proportions here, which prevents going outside with the camera, which causes grainy photos, but I must inquire.

Ah ha! Forgot about those guys. Like these that I photographed a few days ago? The ones with the big yellow beaks? The reminder is appreciated!

Common Starling. The white spot is a stray albino feather.
