Melanistic Robin?

Watched this guy for a while...sure looks like an all black robin...any other guesses?

Starling?

I was kinda thinking that, but after watching him for about 15 mns, not too sure. Poor pics; there are no markings on him although the one pic makes it look like it. That crab apple is loaded right now with robins, chickadees, and some other ones I can't identify. Getting ready for the big chill.....

did this bird have a longer yellow beak????? if so its a starling. the color features on the feathers sure point to a starling!!!!!

Why, this Brownie is no good? Well! Next time I'll run outside and ask him to pose.   I think you guys are right. You too smurfy. I was bleary eyed then, not enough cawfee yet. Will that excuse work? 

 

 

[eyeguy 54]

want a pic of you asking it to pose

OK, so they are starlings.....and their buddies the robins are gorging again today.
