I have a cousin that always referred to noisy minors as pluvers [insert labotomy emoticon here].Hilly wrote:How the heck do you confuse the two birds...?
I,m with you fenring!fenring wrote:Exactly. Some people simply don't know their birds. I've heard a lot of people call starlings "blackbirds."
The one thing with the noisy mynahs that annoys me is that they try and harass the parrots and move them on.

I don't want to put anyone's nose out of joint being a newcomer here so it is with some hesitation that I even mention this.
The correct spelling of the Aussie native species is noisy miner, only the foreign import from the subcontinent is spelled myna.
Correct use of the word myna might just help avoid folk confusing the two species.
