Most mornings start with the enthusiastic chirping of our friend shown here. He and his winged cousins perch atop our balcony railing at least a dozen times each day – and tend to be keen on conversation. Their eyes betray a sense of ownership as they stare at me, cocking their head slightly as if to say, “And you are…?”
If there are any capable ornithologists out there – we’d love to know our friend’s name.
*update: thanks to Nicky D, who passed along this link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Myna
looks like the common myna is often considered an invasive species - i realized we're in no position to throw stones on this issue ;) -km
