The Old World Babblers are a family of passerine birds diverse in size and coloration, characterised by soft fluffy plumage. These are birds of tropical areas, with the greatest variety in Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent. This group is among those Old World bird families with the highest number of species still being discovered. Featured here is the White-browed Scimitar Babbler from Doi Luang in Chiang Mai.

It is a medium-sized babbler with a slightly decurved yellow bill. It usually forages low in the undergrowth, at middle levels, or on the ground, often in mixed flocks with other babblers and laughingthrushes. Found from the upper lowlands up into mountainous regions, where it inhabits forests with dense undergrowth, as well as shrubby edges and grassy areas. Repertoire is vast and includes whoops, rattles, and hooting. As with other scimitar-babblers, pairs duet with one another.

The Greater Necklaced Laughingthrush is a large, long-tailed, thrush like bird of dense forests native to East and Southeast Asia. Note its black necklace, streaked white cheek patch, and pale band near the tip of the tail. Very similar to the Lesser Necklaced Laughingthrush; note the dark eye and ‘contained’ (completely encircled) cheek patch. A shy and difficult to see well bird it is usually found in small flocks in wet lowland and hill forest, often near streams. The song is a series of loud whistles, not as long or varied as that of Hwamei.

The Plain Prinia is a common prinia with drab gray-brown plumage that varies in tone across its range. Note the pale, wide eyebrow and the long tail that appears as if it is loosely attached to the body. Common in various habitats, especially farms and wetlands, but avoids woodlands with a canopy. A somewhat bold species, it often skulks in the undergrowth but sings from exposed perches.

A massive tree kingfisher widely but sparsely distributed in the tropical Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It sports a large scarlet bill, olive-brown head with dark green-blue upperparts & buff underparts. Its regular contact call is a loud laughing “ka-ka-ka” repeated 6-10 times. It prefers large streams, rivers, and the edges of large water bodies with vegetated banks.

#Kingfishers are a family of small to medium-sized, brightly coloured birds in the order #Coraciiformes. They have a cosmopolitan distribution, with most species found in the tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Oceania. The family contains 114 species and is divided into three subfamilies and 19 genera. I have been able to photograph a few of these across Asia Pacific with some coming quite easily and some coming after waiting for hours, damp and cold but worth every bit the wait. Featured here is the beautiful Common Kingfisher.
