Common Myna

Acridotheres tristis

Description:

It is not unusual to see Common Mynas with almost no facial feathers. Different people have put forward different theories but none have any positive proof as to the cause. We saw quite a lot during our visits to Malaysia and Borneo this year.

Habitat:

footpath in town
