Cloudless morning showed Ingham's social-nesting Metallic Starlings (Aplornis metallica) in best light early today.
Not many immatures out and about yet, but plenty of adults bringing in food for unseen hungry mouths.
It's not all for sharing. Sometimes seems more about showing off some red treasure. Matches the eyes nicely.
Though who needs props when just sitting on a branch looks so splendid?
