Boy, can this group extrapolate.  Okay, as long as we've now got starlings 
and sparrows in the mix, can anyone confirm or deny that both species were 
introduced to America by a Shakespeare fan?  The story as I recall it was 
that a few pairs were released in New York by a man who wanted to be 
surrounded by all the birds the Bard ever mentioned in his writings.
History, or urban legend?
