EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo, Don Hadden captures the notorious Common Myna in all its audacious glory. With a mischievous glint in its eye, this feathered invader has made quite a name for itself in Australia and New Zealand. Known for usurping other birds from their nesting holes, it seems like this cheeky character is up to no good! Hailing from the northern half of the North Island of New Zealand and along the eastern seaboard of Australia, these pesky pests have caused quite a stir among native bird populations. But hey, you can't deny their resourcefulness! This single myna perched on Cairns esplanade in Queensland showcases just how adaptable they are. With vibrant plumage and an undeniable charm (despite their pest status), it's hard not to be captivated by these introduced species. They've certainly carved out a niche for themselves amidst the unique wildlife found in Australasia. So next time you spot one of these feathered troublemakers causing mayhem around your neighborhood or local park, take a moment to appreciate their tenacity and cunning nature. After all, even though they're regarded as pests, there's something undeniably fascinating about witnessing nature's ability to adapt and thrive – even when we least expect it!
