CLOSED: Starling ID please

Vienna, VA(Zone 7a)

The first two photos show American Robins and European Starlings at my birdbath. One of the Starlings has a brown bill; is that a juvenile? Its coloration looks like that of an adult, but the bill looks like that of a juvenile...a teenager, perhaps : - )

The 3rd photo is just for fun...I've never seen so many thirsty Robins!

Yep, a 'teenager' - it still has a couple of brown juvenile feathers in the wing, too. About 9 months old.
