While cats do not fill a specific niche normally held by a native carnivore, there are reasons to believe that some of those birds would have been eaten by a wild predator had the cats not been in play. In other words, cats may be a very severe problem in some places, but in other places not a factor at all.

It'll be my area's first group dedicated to reducing the feral cat population! And of course, I will use the meetings as an opportunity for vegan outreach. Kudos to the cat people of North County who started this much-needed venture!

Of course, a lot of the mammals would be hiding. But, of course, these starling were feeding for much of the year on farm fields, which are not the natural habitat of that region (it should be woodland, wetland, marshland, and shoreline). And some of them would be hiding behind bushes waiting for a chance to jump on some of the birds.

This would be a night drive, cold, dark, uncomfortable seats, loud engine in the giant 26-seater truck, scanning the brush and the roadside with three or four strong spotlights wrangled by volunteers among the nature-loving tourists, and of course, the headlights of the truck. And, of course, something interesting came along.
