The myna that came a-calling


Common Myna (Scientific name: Acridotheres tristis), sometimes known as “Indian myna”, is a member of the family Sturnidae (starlings and mynas), native to Asia. They are a pretty common sight where I stay. This here is a cruious one that has taken a fancy to knocking on the window pane only to be chased away by the dog 😉 Clicked in Trivandrum in March/2015.
