Chestnut-cheeked starling on the way to migration

The chestnut-cheeked starling is a summer bird, and breeds in the northern Japan and the Russian islands of Sakhalin andĀ Kurlies.
I was walking along the bank of the Moro River, I thought they were the white-cheeked starling or grey starling when they passed overhead. They stopped on a power line so I was able to take a video. I have not seen this bird before. They were a flock of about 23 birds. Near the Kubo Seir, they flew off in a flock to the east.
