	Henry Starling - Memory Alpha - A Wikia wiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Starling did not physically scavenge the ship for its technologies, but used its databases and on-board hardware to extrapolate potential exploitable technologies that could be developed and sustained by both the economy and industries available.
		Starling was notified to the arrival of Voyager by a graduate student in his employ and began the process of learning all he could about the starship - which he believed to have been sent from the 29th century to retrieve the timeship from its wrongful place in the timeline.
		Starling was then successful in thwarting their effort to transport the Aeon from his launch bay, and effectively turned the tables on Voyager's crew when he utilized their own transporter stream to access their computer database and download over twenty percent of their computer files.

	The Spread of the European Starling in North America, by May Thacher Cooke (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Because of the fact that the starling is constantly invading new territory and, as a consequence, is confused with birds long known, and is thus frequently misidentified, it seems desirable to present a general description of the bird in its various plumages.
		Since 1923 starlings have been noted in a number of localities in Indiana and in 1927 were known to breed in at least four localities in the northern half of the State.
		Starlings reached Detroit and Ann Arbor, Mich., in 1924, and by 1927 they were breeding across the southern part of the State and had occurred locally north to Saginaw Bay, and a few near the Straits of Mackinac.

	European Starling (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The starling is an intelligent, attractive, and interesting bird, but it has a significant negative impact on native species, and its habit of forming large wintering flocks often make it an unwelcome pest.
		Starlings are cavity nesters, and will use a natural cavity in a tree, a woodpecker hole, an opening in a building, a ventilation pipe or a nest box.
		Starlings are cavity breeders, and are aggressive competitors against native species of birds, especially cavity nesting birds such as flickers, bluebirds and the Great Crested Flycatcher.

	Mozart's Starling
		The pleasure he expressed at hearing the starling's song--"Das war schon!" (that was beautiful)--is all the more understandable when one compares the beginning of the last movement of his Piano Concerto in G major, K.453, which was written about the same time.
		Mozart's skills as a musician and composer would have rendered him especially susceptible to the starling's vocal charms, and thus we will also propose that the funeral and the poem are not the end of the story.
		The problem with starlings is that they vocalize too much, too often, and in too great numbers, sometimes in choruses numbering in the thousands (a flock of starlings is labeled a murmuration).

	European Starling
		The starling was first successfully established in the US when fewer than 100 birds were introduced in Central Park in 1890.
		Starlings frequently use the nest cavities excavated by woodpeckers, driving flickers, red headed and red bellied woodpeckers from their nests and even watching as woodpeckers excavate a new cavity, then ganging up on the woodpecker and commandeering the cavity.
