Occurrence of the Starling in Baja California, Mexico.--On December 19, 1962, we saw three Starlings (Sturnus vdgtis) perched on a television antenna on the grounds of the Ester0 Beach Hotel approximately six miles south of Ensenada in Baja California, Mexico. A short while later on the same morning we saw three Starlings flying over the hotel grounds, proceeding in a southeasterly direction. Apparently the species has not been reported from Baja California previously, although it has been known for some years in other northern parts of Mexico.-ERNEST P. EDWARDS and EUGENE S. MORTON, University of the Pacific, Stockton, California, March 13, 1963.
