Every winter, as the vast landscapes of Siberia and temperate Asia surrender to ice and snow, a remarkable natural phenomenon unfolds: a mass migration of millions of birds seeking survival in warmer climes. Among the most resilient of these avian voyagers is the Siberian Stonechat (Saxicola maurus), a tiny bird that flies thousands of kilometers to the Indian subcontinent. In Telangana, this little flycatcher becomes a familiar, welcome sight during the cooler months, transforming open scrublands and wetland margins into temporary winter homes.

The Siberian Stonechat is a chunky little bird of open landscapes; often seen on exposed perches. The breeding male has a black head, broad white half-collar, and rusty-red chest while the non-breeding male is patchier, with a paler head and chest.

The Blyth’s Leaf Warbler is a fairly bright mid-sized leaf-warbler, yellowish-green above and white below with two wingbars, a broad yellow-suffused eyebrow, and a pale stripe across a gray crown. It breeds in broadleaf (often oak), coniferous, or mixed forests at middle to high elevations, and descends into lower foothill regions in the winter.
