This is a bulbul sized bird. Spreads its tail while it's hopping from one place to another-that could be an act of warning the predators.

Habitat:

Western Himalayas.

Thanks For the ID, Satyen. They are very shy and often fly away quickly. Ialso clicked it accidently when I was out looking for other birds.
