Bird Series - Jerdon's leafbird

I spotted this when I was at hosaadu village. Later I spotted them nearby western ghats of kollur. On both occasions, it was foraging on cashew tree. They do not stay for longer time. This is what I could get in 300mm on a lucky day when I accidentally spotted it. The spotting itself is difficult due to colour match with cashew tree. The unusual movements of tree branches were indicator of bird presence and it turned out to be leafbird. Wish to spot it again! The texture and colour are lovely



Not this one!


Ha yes! This seems to the right one
