Description:
With shiny blue-black feathers and a spectacular tail, this is a medium sized bird about 30 cm long. Excellent mimic with many sounds. Closely mimics the sound of a cat's mew when it sees one nearby. Also sounds like many birds including the Shikra to scare other birds and steal their food. Fearless and mobs many large birds and cats.
