I am new to this Bird Forum and discovered it bt accident, which searching for the violet backed starling. I love birds and one of my favourite hobby is to watch birds which live near to my house and terrace. Living in a city, it may be quite difficult to spot a variety of unique birds, but I still live to watch them nonetheless. One of the rare birds that i have seen near to my area is the Green bee eater. I had spotted a couple near my home, except the other regular pigeon, doves, crows, mynahs, among others. I hope to learn more about different birds while being in this forum, and hopefully get interested in full fledged birding myself!
