| The Asian pied starling (Sturnus contra) is one of the 12 bird species of family Sturnidae resident in Bangladesh. Locally known as myna (Bengali: ময়না) or shalik (Bengali: শালিক), these birds build their nests in holes or cavities in trees or buildings, or large globular structures of straw, twigs, etc. in trees. | |
