The mynas are introduced exotic birds from Asia. The Hill Myna, Common Myna and Crested Myna are all members of the same family as the starlings. These dark plumaged birds are accuctomed to towns and cities and can be found in some Florida cities and suburbs, seen perched on the top of palm trees or perched side by side, forming rows of birds on a utility line.
Similar in character to the European Starling, these birds can be found feeding in parks and towns where they take advantage of foodscraps left behind by park visitors.
