鄰居家樹上的歐洲椋鳥

鄰居家樹上。

gemini 說這是歐洲椋鳥：

Those look like European Starlings (Sturnus vulgaris).

You can tell by their classic winter appearance: dark, iridescent plumage covered in distinct white "stars" or speckles. During the winter, these spots are quite prominent, but they actually wear off by spring, leaving the birds a sleek, glossy black with a purple-green sheen.

A few quick traits visible in your photo:

• The Speckles: The heavy white/buff spotting across the body.
  
  
• Beak Color: In winter, their beaks are dark, but as spring approaches (like right now in late January), you might start to see them turning yellow.
  
  
• Body Shape: They have a short tail and a chunky, "football" shaped body that makes them very easy to spot even from a distance.
  
  

They are incredibly vocal and are famous for being master mimics—they can imitate other birds, car alarms, and even human speech!

deepsek譯成的中文：

這些看起來是歐洲椋鳥（學名：Sturnus vulgaris）。

可以從它們典型的冬季特征辨認：深色虹彩羽毛上布滿明顯的白色"星點"斑紋。冬季這些斑點格外醒目，但到春季會逐漸脫落，使羽毛變成光滑的紫綠色泛光純黑色。

您照片中可見的幾個特征：

斑點特征：全身密布的白色/淺黃斑點

喙部顏色：冬季喙呈深色，但臨近春季時（如一月底的現在）會逐漸轉黃

體型結構：短尾搭配渾圓的"橄欖球"體型，遠距離也極易辨認

這種鳥鳴叫聲極其豐富，更是著名的模仿大師——能模仿其他鳥類、汽車警報聲甚至人類語言！
