Common myna, Ranomafana, Madagascar Opening the set for the 2nd location of our trip: Ranomafana. The day started with a huge d&eacute;j&agrave; vu. We were here 7 years earlier, in the same hotel, same room, with the same giant Traveller palm in front of us. <br />
<br />
The Common myna is originally an Asian bird, that has migrated to Madagascar and made a permanent stay. It can be found all over Madagascar and is known as a very dominant bird. It actively chases away other birds.<br />

The common myna, sometimes spelled mynah, also sometimes known as "Indian myna", is a member of the family Sturnidae native to Asia. An omnivorous open woodland bird with a strong territorial instinct, the myna has adapted extremely well to urban environments.
