The European Starling was brought to New York in the 1890's. The man responsible was a fan of William Shakespeare and wanted all the birds mentioned in his work introduced into the United States. Sixty to 100 birds were released in Central Park. They adapted to their new habitat and multiplied. Today they can be found from one coast to another. They have taken over habitats of native birds and have sent some species into a decline.
