Chestnut-tailed Starling or Grey-headed Myna (Sturnia malabarica) is a member of the starling family of perching birds. It is a resident or partially migratory species found in wooded habitats in India and Southeast Asia.

The species name is after the distribution of a former subspecies in the Malabar region. This resident population has a white head and is often treated as a full species, the Malabar starling (Sturnia blythii).

Happy birding 💧

 

This was certainly the highlight of 2018 seeing and photographing Pine Grosbeaks which are rarely present in our area. If I am not mistaking, this one would be a Juvenile male, do not hesitate to correct me. After missing them early morning, I searched for them the entire morning without success. It is not until noon that I heard them way up high in a pine tree (very happy I listened to their call on the internet the night before). I waited a long while until they came down to this tree. Beautiful male (4), 1 or 2 female and this Juvenile male were feeding as sloppy as they can be. This is one of many shots I got from this flock... more to come.
