Hi Melissa,
These birds and very similar species (eg Greater & Lesser Blue-eared Glossy Starlings, etc)are found in Ghana and various other countries in West Africa.
They often come to gardens.

Are these also native to Ghana? I had one in my back yard and I am pretty sure that it was this type of bird.
