First time I've seen this kind of bird when we went to Maui. They are so many of them sort of like American Robin number wise.

Very nice portrait Peter. Is this variety of Myna kept as a pet by some? I wonder if they're great mimics.

Thanks. I am not sure if it is. I saw them everywhere in Maui.

We have them here, and to Aussie's they're known as Indian Mynas, and no they are not good mimics at all. Nice shot by the way. :-)


Currently just a P&S, but watch this space.
