Description

Lamprotornis nitens phoenicopterus

Deutsch: Lamprotornis nitens, Erwachsener mit Jungvogel in Krüger Nationalpark, Südafrika
English: A juvenile (left, with matt plumage) and adult (right, with glossy plumage) Cape starling in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. The sighting date implies late breeding, and the adult has not completed its post-breeding molt. Eyes of juveniles start to change from grey to yellow at two months. By 6 months they have the appearance of adults.[1]
