A male Red-winged Starling collecting nesting material then flying away. Red-winged Starlings (Onychognathus morio) are usually found in rocky habitats in South Africa, although they have adapted well to humans, and often nest on buildings. Red-winged Starlings form monogamous pairs, and build a bulky, untidy nest with mud incorporated into its base. They mainly eat fruit, but are omnivorous, taking a range of small vertebrates and invertebrates as well as scavenging for food near people. This male Red-winged Starling was gathering a mixture of muddy soil and grass fragments for its nest in a field near Wakkerstroom before flying off. Elevation: 1769 m. Date added to IBC: April 20, 2019.
