Description

Also known as Rose-coloured Starling.

Identification

Location: Lesvos

Big Aussie twitch

In September 2004 a Rosy Starling appeared on Roebuck Plains near Broome, Western Australia. Every birdo who was anyone twitched it (and one failed, twice).

A year later I was in the same spot. I took a photo of the pole it had sat on.
