This bird was sitting in our courtyard by the feeders, watching and looking darned cute. Can anyone help me with an ID?
CLOSED: Pretty brownish greenish bird with a dirty bill
Common Starling, juvenile.

Thanks for the information. I don't think I've ever seen two starlings that looked alike. Often shiny black with white spots, or disheveled looking and very very colorful, but always noticeable for one reason or the other. This one caught my attention because of his simple handsomeness. I've read that they're considered a pest in some parts of the world, but I see very few of them, so haven't yet developed any prejudice. Unlike the Eurasian Collared Dove, which wore out his welcome quite soon!
Nice photos. I guess you got quite close to it?
