Notes

    \n
  • There's
    \na ton out there about the sixty starlings, the most comprehensive comes
    \nfrom Stephen Marche's book, How Shakespeare Changed Everything.

  • I also found Kim Todd's [Tinkering with Eden,](http://%22Tinkering%20With%20Eden:%20A%20Natural%20History%20of%20Exotic%20Species%20in%20America) particularly useful.
