[BirdPhotoIndia] Spotted Bush Warbler, Maguri grassland, Tinsukia (Assam)

The New Year dawned at Maguri grassland enveloped in dense fog, making us anxious of being able to see the two elusive bush warblers which were our targets. After several hours of disappointment, finally the persistence of our guide, Binanda, paid off, and this bush warbler briefly granted us an unobstructed view, disappearing into the grass within a few seconds. It would emerge and disappear several times over the course of 10 minutes while we stood motionless at the spot. Later, on inspection of the photographs, opinion remained divided on whether we had seen one or both of the bush warblers in quick succession. This one was finally IDed as Spotted Bush Warbler on the basis of the undertail barrings. Maguri grassland, 1 Jan 2014. 

Cheers,
Garima
