🐦Common Starling
De spreeuw (Sturnus vulgaris) is een zangvogel uit de familie Sturnidae (spreeuwen). Hoewel hij het hele jaar door te zien is, is het een trekvogel. De spreeuwen die in de zomer in Nederland of België zijn, vliegen in de winter naar het zuiden. Spreeuwen die in Nederland of België overwinteren bevinden zich gedurende de zomer noordelijker.
