Nice to see this softer looking Sturnus species, a contrast to Euro-common Starling. Nice one Ampersand, a beautiful image.
 
Softer side indeed Andy T. This bird is often ignored here in Japan. While the many other WC Starlings were enjoying gregarious relations this one was chillin out, enjoying its own company ...
