Feathers of Fabulousness: Meet the Cape Glossy Starling, Africa's Fashionista Bird!". In this stunning print captured by Alan Weaving, we are introduced to the vibrant and charismatic Cape Glossy Starling. With its glossy plumage shimmering in shades of iridescent blues and greens, this avian diva is a true showstopper! Native to western Angola and southern Africa, including the iconic Kruger National Park in South Africa, these starlings have become renowned for their impeccable style and flair. Whether they're perched on a Mopani tree or fluttering through the African wilderness, their beauty never fails to captivate. As members of the passeriformes family (the songbirds), Cape Glossy Starlings possess an eclectic taste when it comes to dining. They happily indulge in fruits as frugivores, insects as insectivores, and even sip nectar like little connoisseurs - truly embracing their foodie status! With such striking features and diverse eating habits, it's no wonder these birds have become wildlife fashion icons! Their single-minded pursuit of perfection has made them beloved residents of national parks across South Africa. So next time you visit Kruger National Park or any other wildlife haven in southern Africa, keep your eyes peeled for these fabulous feathered friends. And if you're lucky enough to snap a picture like Alan Weaving did here – remember that nature's runway awaits your lens!
