Common Iora (Aegithina tiphia)

This was the only bird in our trip to Maredumilli that was amongst the greenery low down and not like all others up in the canopy, but it still played hide and seek with us and would fly off as we approached to a decent distance!!! Shot this one before at Nagarjunasagar, but I did observe striking difference in plumage pattern and color between the two!
