Field Notes

Description:

Very common bird. Usually feeds on fruits and small insects. Local people usually considered it as a pest because it consumes ripened black pepper.
Makes its nest in bushes.

Notes:

I tried to cover the whole stages from egg to bird but unfortunately they are preyed by a crow pheasant.
