Gray-breasted Prinia (Prinia hodgsonii)

Great bird! well done

Grey-breasted Prinia for me too Frankie. Well spotted, and well captured, congrats on a very fine newbie.

Congrats Francesca, great capture and bird, well done.

Thanks for your kind comments, folks! Very encouraging for a newbie! Cheers!

about the ID if they send out loud frog like metallic calls then they are the famous graceful pirina. they are showing great activity also here, the couple i have are breeding again, February is there time

this is one of the most difficult birds to capture specially when they are perched up there, i was only lucky once to get good shots of them, so i think you made a marvelous job here.

i am trying to get a shot for one as i hear them all morning now for a week and no luck at all.
