Hi It was late morning...the heat was unbearable. I was trying to take snaps of a pair of White-browed Bulbuls in the dense forests near Kopai river, when this lovely blue n chestnut bird caught my attention. It played hide n seek with me for a few minutes and then finally i took these snaps. I couldnt figure out what bird it was.....but I was sure it belonged to the thrush family. Unfortunately I didnt carry any bird-book to identify the bird. But I was certain it was something which I had not seen before. I returned to Kolkata with all my excitement and was thrilled to find that I shot the pic of a Blue-capped Rock thrush. Please note the blue head cap and throat, Black band surrounding eye and the prominent white wing patch. I would like to know whether its likely to get this bird in the forests of Birbhum or it is a passage migrant. regards Shantanu. |
