Albino Common Myna Bird – One in a Million!

Albino Myna....................................................Always seen together with other normal mynas Sorry the pictures are not clear. I have to chase after the little fella to get a good shot! Malaysian common myna which is the member of the starling species is brown in colour. I came across this albino myna bird a couple of times in the park that I use to frequent. Albino myna is very rare. Myna bird is a very adaptable species and it is a native bird of South East Asia. I used to have 2 cute myna birds as pets when I was a kid. They follow me everywhere. Myna birds are favourite pets because of their speaking abiliities. It is very interesting to watch this albino myna bird mingling around with other normal mynas in searching for food in the park. Sometimes, I wonder why these normal myna birds can life together with this odd albino myna bird peacefully, but in many parts of the world, people are still fighting each other because of the difference in skin colour. It is also very interesting to note that mynas stay with one single mate for life!
