Myna must have made its way to English vocabulary from Persian or Hindi. In Persian we call it Myna (pronounced Meena) and it is known for its imitation abilities, some of them could learn quite a few words. They could be good pet friends, like parrots. The photo is perfect. I love mynas. Also one of the cartoons i loved when i was a child (still do) was adventures of Sinbad. Sinbad had a speaking mynah who always gave wise advice to him but he never listened! :-))

Incredible sharpness and clarity, you have a great gift for animal photography. How did you get the bird to sit still for your picture?

Fine closeup with clear details - the shallow DoF adds that extra enhancement.
