If anyone is contemplating a trip to Vancouver for Crested Myna sightings I
have some good news. On Wednesday I located two at a well-known location and
today there were four, the most I've seen together for a long time.

The location is along Wylie just south of its junction with 2nd Avenue. This
is on the south side of False Creek, Wylie is one block east of Cambie. If
you are coming from the south get onto Cambie, head north and take the slip
road down to 2nd Avenue which is just before the bridge that crosses False
Creek. At 2nd Avenue turn right and then make a left of off 2nd. The
landmark is the Maynards auction house on the north west corner of Wylie and
2nd Avenue. I saw the birds on the roof of this building, on the edge of the
roof above Wylie and perched on lights in the wall of the brick building to
the north-east, and across Wylie, from the Maynards building.
