Sturnus vulgaris
medium-sized black, but also colorful bird with a yellow bill, in the starling family Sturnidae.
All of N. America, but this one was seen at my old church across the street from my house, where there is lots of plants and wildlife.
These birds are usually very afraid of me, so I would consider my self lucky to get this good of a close-up.

Your welcome!
Thanks Josh!
Nice shot Des!
Thanks Soo much, Jim!
One thing about starlings...they are pretty noisy and cocky. I have no trouble spotting them, because of the noise. Good job on this spotting on your part.
