Myna (Acridotheres tristis)

One day I drove across the island to Hilo. Just because. Stopped at the base of the volcanoes, but I wasn't supposed to take my little rental car on unpaved roads, so couldn't drive up and didn't have the time or strength to hike all that way. Stopped in a little park that supposedly had some good birding. Saw the usual introduced species. Still, it was a nice day of exploring the island scenery.

Nice picture of this Myna. I remember my experience with these guys. They are very tame, until you stopped and pointed a camera at them (lol). Well done Doc!
