		As with the Mesopotamian crow, the bulbul above is probably a subspecies local to the area, Pycnonotus leucotis mesopotamiae, in this case, rather than a purebred Pycnonotus leucogenys.
		My most fascinating expatriate visitors have been a pair of Red-vented Bulbuls (Pycnonotus cafer), already resident on my arrival....In my first summer they produced one offspring and while the mother continued to look after the juvenile, the male mated again with a White-Cheeked Bulbul (Pycnonotus lencogenys mesopotamiae), a species normally resident in the area.
		If the offspring of the Red-Vented and White-Cheeked bulbuls were able to breed successfully, then they were not reproductively isolated, meaning that the differences in their outward appearances are evidence of natural color variation within a single species rather than evidence of multiple species.
