China has beautiful starlings!  The prettiest one is the Black-collared Starling.

He had the most beautiful song.

I saw them in Shenzhen, but not in Chengdu.  Their range map is pretty wide, though.

He can really stretch his neck out and make it look like he’s wearing a cowl scarf.

    Love the Etsy dude. Must have been a black-collared starling in a previous life. Good thing no one was walking by my office when I saw him because I laughed out loud (and work’s not supposed to be fun).

    Thanks! I wonder sometimes if people get my humor. :-)
