Field Notes

Description:

Rufous body, black head. Sweet call. Social bird usually seen in pairs or small groups.

Habitat:

Garden of the camp we stayed in; Neora Valley area. Pristine, forested, hilly.

Notes:

Doesn't spook easily and sits a while when it lands but forages hidden by leaves which makes photography difficult.
