Is Your Favorite Color Violet? Then Meet Your New Favorite Animal: The Violet-backed Starling (Cinnyricinclus

A photo of a Violet-backed Starling. The bird has dazzling purple plumage on its back.

Is your favorite color violet? Then meet your new favorite animal: the Violet-backed Starling (Cinnyricinclus leucogaster)! It lives in open woodland and riverine habitats in parts of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It mainly snacks on fruits and seeds, but will also munch on the occasional insect. Males can be seen sparkling in the Sun with their iridescent violet plumage on full display. Females have brown or olive green plumage.
