Mozart's Starling by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

Fascinating description of the raising and care of a starling by the author and her family and a juxtaposition of the life of this "pet" starling and the impact of a pet starling on the work of Mozart. Starlings are non-native usurpers in North America and as a result, have been reviled but the reader cannot help come away from this book with an appreciation of one remarkable and delightful representative of this particular species.
