Scope and Contents sturnus vulgaris is the scientific name for the English Starling bird.Internet: This is a book of auguring, or divination codex, where birds are the words, in particular the common starling (with a few cameos by seagulls & crows). The sequenced set of flight patterns, or murmurations, were captured over the course of the past few years in the skies over Rome, where the starlings winter in the months of October & November.

The murmurating cross-sections in this book were captured mostly from the loser's Aventine...
