[Photo] Black-winged Starling (Sturnus melanopterus) at Jurong Town, South West. "Not the greatest photo, and it's a captive bird, but was unrepresented in the Field Guide, and something is better than nothing. At the Jurong Bird Park, Singapore. Avibase says they're endangered. Didn't notice at the time if there was a breeding pair in the enclosure, but I hope so." by cramsay23 (www.flickr.com/photos/cramsay23/). Date: Taken on June 1, 2007.
