Finally got to see today's paper and found out the birds are indeed
starlings per Bryan Watts! Let the noise making begin, I suppose. 300,000
birds generate and enormous amount of waste, no doubt!

Subject: Bird problem at Benjamin Harrison bridge
I was checking the Channel 8/WRIC website for the outcome of an accident I
stopped for yesterday when I noticed that there is a "starling" problem
hindering construction out there. Remember how Richmond had a "starling"
problem at the purple martin roost in previous years? Anyone out there seen
large flocks of "starlings" in the area (time of day?)? Sorry I cannot
go-moving, continuing ed class, etc.
