		Generally identification proved fairly straightforward (except for a severe shrike error), probably to the impoverished diversity of bulbuls and babblers on the island.
		This is a very cute little bird, whose rusty belly and white throat make it easy to identify.
		Almost always encountered in parties of 3 to many, they are both hyperactive and very tame, working at all levels of the canopy, but perhaps most commonly on the ground.

	Birdwatching Trip Report from Goa ,India
		In the surrounding area we came across Greater Coucal, Jungle Babbler, Rock Bush‑Quail, Indian Robin and about 2-3kms away through Carambolim village we caught up with the unusual 'saxicola' species that is regularly sought and currently thought to be White‑browed (Stoliczka's) Bush-Chat (a Red-Data listed species).
		The swimming pool at our hotel was a welcome relief from the heat and the dust and as we relaxed in the water Wire‑tailed and Red‑rumped Swallows skimmed past our heads.
		At night when we were drinking a beer at the campfire, Loven taped out an Oriental Scops‑Owl giving its quivering call and the day was capped off when we were treated to a superb view of this lifer for most birders in the group.

		A nearby shallow lake is thronged with water birds at this season and we may find Dalmatian Pelican, Greater Flamingo, Ruddy Shelduck, Demoiselle Crane, Great Thick-knee, River Lapwing, Temminck's Stint, Marsh Sandpiper, Brown-headed and Yellow-legged Gulls, and Indian Skimmer, as well as numerous Ruffs and Black-tailed Godwits.
		As we walk along the bunds we will be looking out in particular for four more specialties of Harike; White-tailed Stonechat, the localized and threatened Rufous-vented Prinia (which favors the denser reed and cane growth), Striated Babbler and Sind Sparrow, a species restricted to the drainage of the Indus basin.
		As we explore these rich wetlands we shall see a very wide variety of herons, ducks, waders, gulls and terns, but the waterbird we shall most be hoping to see is the rare Indian Skimmer.

		We didn't, but still saw Brown-capped Babbler, the endemic subspecies (or species depending on which taxonomy you follow) of Black-crested Bulbul and excellent views of an adult Black Eagle hunting over the forest.
		Paddyfield Pipits, Pied Bushcats and Fan-tailed Warblers were common, and we also saw Pacific Swallow, Yellow-eared Bulbuls, Indian Scimitar Babbler and two Munias in flight which may well have been the endemic Black-throated Munia but unfortunately we could not get better views.
		The forest is the largest remaining area of primary rainforest in Sri Lanka, although interestingly most of the birding is done in secondary forest.

		Before getting back into the van, however, we got the scope out to check our a distant perched vulture, which proved a good move as it was a White-backed Vulture, a species that has declined horribly in recent years as a result of a virus, and are now quite scarce.
		Large Grey Babbler, Red and Eurasian Collared-Doves, Spotted Owlet, Grey Bushchat, Plain Prinia and Lesser Whitethroat all followed before we reached the first set of pools, which held Spot-billed Duck and Glossy Ibis, as well as some commoner species of duck.
		Having gone through the field guides with a toothcomb, we are unable to think what else this might have been, and have therefore ticked it off as such, but I remain confused as to how a non-migratory, altitude-specific bird such as this could have turned up at Bharatpur.

		A close (almost confiding) Blue-faced Malkoha eclipsed the brief views we’d had at Backwoods, and Grey-headed Bulbuls were a surprise, as was Oriental Turtle Dove, a species that we’d missed in Northern India.
		One of the few real skulkers of the trip was Tawny-bellied Babbler, and views were limited to about ten seconds.
		The local Flowerpeckers were a pretty unimpressive bunch, but were still needed, and with Plain and Thick-billed, there was only Pale-billed to go.

		Returning to Baga Fields the area around the football pitch had several Paddyfield Pipits as well as one Richard's (most easily distinguished by call when it was flushed) and the first of about a dozen Malabar Larks seen throughout the fields.
		This is a fantastic place, dotted with ruined temples and palaces in a spectacular landscape full of large, rounded boulders.
