The ones here are much darker too but not very skittish. I used to have one that would come in through the kitchen window and hop around checking what other food was available before stealing cat biscuits - it soon got used to me enough that it'd stay in the room while I was there and even eat crumbs from my plate if I let it.
It makes me feel so guilty enjoying watching them bc I know they are invasive! But they are pretty neat and their social interactions are funny. They are very inquisitive birds.Starlings are not native to North America, and they have a huge impact on some of our more timid native birds.
