Why it matters
The African Pied Starling, or *Lamprotornis bicolor*, is distinguished by its unique brownish-black plumage and striking white under-tail coverts. Native to southern Africa, these birds are particularly valued by birders for their complex social behaviors and the distinctively notched tails and pointed wings that make them elegant, if understated, subjects for avian observation.
