This is an all black, small (some 30 cm in length incl tail) but incredibly aggressive Asian predatory songbird.
Habitat:

Considered subspecies of Fork-tailed Drongo until recently. It is often associated with farming, and farmers appreciate it - in Myanmar, they know that Drongos help farmers in controlling animal pests.
