The fact that they have a band indicates they came from a breeder. I googled a bit today to find that there are certainly many bird breeders who breed them in the US. They evidently make decent pets and have a wonderful song ( of course, they are starlings).
My guess is from what Paddy said about when they first appeared is that they may have escaped after one of the hurricanes in 2005 ( Katrina or Wilma)..
