Male cardinals are all red with a black patch around their red bill. Females are brown in color with some red on wings and tail. They are 7-9 inches in length.
Male house sparrows have a black throat, white cheeks, and a brown back. Females do not have a black throat and have a lighter brown breast. They are about 6 inches long.
The common starling is black with a yellow bill. It has a short tail and looks like a triangle when it is flying. In the winter time it is speckled with color. It is 7 to 8 inches.
