Greater Blue-Eared Starling
If you have never seen a Greater Blue-Eared Starling before, chances are you’re not alone. They are not exactly abundant in nature. The species is native to South Africa and Angola and has been on the IUCN Endangered Species list in the past. In the areas listed, they are quite frequent. However, if you do not go there, you likely will not come across them. That makes it difficult for most to see them, as the tourism to Angola and South Africa is not exactly “high.” That said, this bird is quite beautiful with its blue appearance.
