I added a voice recording and many photos of Rosy Starling after returning from Kazakhstan. The birds usually appeared in flocks of several dozen, though heaps of aggregates by the sides of newly built expressways attracted hundreds of birds. An incredible sight. From a few accidental encounters with flocks of Rosy Starling, I took enough photos to transform the gallery completely.
