You really can just sense the sheer communication ability this bird has, absolutely amazing.

[@pierrelabrecque8979]

My starling's name is "Wingnut" and after 6 years of companionship, pattern recognition and basic observation, I agree 100%. My experiences have rendered the term "bird brain" a compliment. Ever see a large flock move like fluid in the sky? That is communication science can't explain.

[@atashgallagher5139]

This bird definitely plays a bard. And a stereotypical one at that.

[@atashgallagher5139]

​@pierrelabrecque8979 it is communication science can explain. And really cool communication at that. It's beautifully simple. There are computer simulations that mimic the pattern in just a few simple parameters. And although getting simulations of long term flocking behaviors where they need to be headed in generally the right direction for days at a time Is much more complex, that's simulating migratory or feeding and mating behaviors not just flocking. It's very very very complex, but so simply orchestrated. That's the sign of great communication and planning. If you design a car that can run on three parts each of which can be easily built in some dude's garage that's incredible. Simplicity and ease aren't insults.

[@australopithecus_lucis]

It has communication potential, but at this moment it is simply able to produce a vast gamma of sounds. Communication is not only about phonetic utterance; the sounds need to be 'deciphered' by someone else (another starling in this case) as well, in order to actually be 'communication'; the ability to decipher this depends on the complexity of the nervous system, which is pretty simple is starlings. The ability to actually perceive the sounds in all their complexity is another factor, but I'm not familiar with the auditorial capacity of starlings or birds of any kind (to make this clearer, while humans perceive the sound in one way, it is possible that a starling simplifies the sound, whereas a dog hears it as even more complex than humans do). I am not a zoologist, but I spend most of my free time studying linguistics and semiotics (zoosemiotics as well). This bird is still marvelous, though, and I don't mean to take that away from it with my answer, which potentially clarified some misconceptions about communication

[@f.faucon6681]

@@australopithecus_lucisThanks, I was just thinking that I felt a bit sad that "conversations" don't seem really possible despite the complexity of the sounds that are being repeated by the bird. I wish that someone, through repetition, could train the bird to associate specific sounds with specific actions, like feeding, petting, opening a window, putting some music on the radio, turning the lights on or off, ... Or even with specific food items, like apple, sunflower seeds, grapes, ... or specific people, and then observe if the bird starts using them in a meaningful way, such as requests or observations / repetition of associations.
