The common starling, also known simply as the starling, is a small to medium-sized passerine bird that is native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. They have a glossy black plumage with metallic green and purple iridescence, and white spots on their wings. During breeding season, the male starlings have a distinctive yellow beak, while the female's is brown.

Common starlings are highly social birds that live in large flocks, especially during the non-breeding season. They are omnivores and feed on a variety of insects, fruits, and seeds. They are also known for their remarkable vocal abilities and can mimic a wide range of sounds, including other bird calls, human speech, and even machinery.

In some regions, the common starling has become an invasive species due to its ability to compete with and displace native bird species. However, they are also considered beneficial in agriculture as they consume large quantities of crop-damaging insects.
