Wattled Starling

These are really awful pictures but will give you an idea of what they look like.

Although Robert’s list these as common and found throughout SA, the only place I have seen them are in the central and northern parts of Kruger National Park.


Their colours make them unmistakable to identify.

Found in large flocks of hundreds.


Eat insects, fruit, nectar of flowering trees and aloes.
