[quote:d219f5f5c7="lrichard"]Alan, I'm glad you've taken photos of one of the Silky Starlings at Tai Mei Tuk, but it's not a juvenile. It's an adult male (red bill, white head, grey mantle, black primaries).

The juvenile I saw the other day was like a female (i.e. with a brown mantle) but still quite fluffy around the head and with a dull yellow-orange bill. It was quite easy to find because it was so noisy - constantly begging to an adult female.

Sorry! I forgot to mention that I was only making a reference to the post. ops:
