Superb Starling - Serengeti, Tanzania
EOS 20D, 100-400

Very much a pest bird but so much more beautiful than the pest birds we have in North America...

Beautiful! Even the pesky starlings here do have some beauty to them up close. To bad they're so aggressive.

Really nice, beautiful colors. I think our starling isn't too bad in the right light. Of course anything looks good in the right light. :lol:
