#Wonderful Animals ##人人能科普, with new knowledge everywhere #
The starling (pronounced liáng) bird (scientific name Sturnus cineraceus) belongs to the family Starlings, with a body mostly gray-black, a gray-brown upperpart, and white tail coverts; The cheeks and ear cover feathers are white, like a small white face. In recent years, every spring, gray starlings have flown to the neighborhood where I live and have children. Here are a few photographs of them foraging.
In their diet, insects are the mainstay, including locusts, crickets, leaf beetles, cicadas and so on. In winter and spring, insects are rarely active, and they also feed on the seeds and fruits of various plants.
For more than 40 years, I have been observing the animals around me and recording different wonderful records. Chinese read the popular science book written by Chinese himself: "My Wild Animal Neighbor", which is interesting, storytelling, and scientific, suitable for people of all ages.
