Himalayas - 274 (Hypsipetes leucocephalus)

Himalayas - 274 ...

These gregarious and
daring birds are
amazing vocalist
as well ...

Apart from close to
a dozen calls and songs
of their own ... they
are great mimic ...

... repeating calls
of other species also ...

Here, in the accompanying
video ... one can see
this individual calling
agitatedly ...
... as the Monsoon
clouds arose with great
speed ... from the
hot plains of India
to strike against
high massif of
Dhauladhar Range ...
the most
southerly of the permanently
snow-bound ranges of
Himalayas ...
