This is a Red-billed Starling with abnormal coloration. Note that the structure and pattern (but not colour) match the adjacent typical birds.

I have seen this individual around the Deep Bay area on a few occasions this winter. I don't know the reason for this strange colour - maybe staining from an external source?

Thanks John.
Poor red-billed starling.
