Finding and photographing the Oriental Magpie-Robin (Copsychus saularis) in the Nallamala forests of South Telangana is a rewarding experience for any birder or photographer. Known as the "Doel" or "Dhayal," this bird is celebrated for its melodious songs and striking black-and-white appearance.

In the dry deciduous forests and urban fringes of Telangana, few avian encounters are as boisterous as a meeting with the Jungle Babbler (Argya striata). Locally known in parts of India as "Seven Sisters" (Sat Bhai), these gregarious birds are the soundtrack of the subcontinent's woodlands, characterized by their constant, wheezy chatter and bustling social structure.

The Indian Giant Squirrel or Malabar Giant Squirrel (Ratufa indica) is a large herbivorous diurnal, arboreal rodent endemic to India’s forests. One of the three giant squirrel species found in the country, the Indian/ Malabar Giant Squirrel is characterised by its rufous-brown/purple colour and its ability to quickly jump from one tree to another. They can be seen either hanging down from the canopy, flat against the tree trunk, or scuttling about the branches, their tails bobbing as they do so.

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.

A distinctive, small and winter migrant flycatcher where the males have a rusty-orange throat that continues onto the breast. All plumages have a distinctive tail pattern with black terminal bar and white sides. The wings relatively plain & a white eyering is noticeable. When perched, the tail is often held cocked with the wingtips drooping. It breeds in mature deciduous mixed forest, wintering in forests, woodlands and parks.

The Tickell’s Blue is an attractive medium-sized flycatcher with blue upperparts and orange-and-white underparts, with the most orange on the chest and the throat. Its smaller-billed profile, less extensive orange, and paler face distinguish this species from the male Hill-Blue Flycatcher. Extensive orange on the throat separates Tickell’s from Blue-throated Flycatcher. It favors open hill forests as well as forest edges, particularly in drier, scrubby areas, often close to water. Both sexes give a pleasant high-pitched tinkling song.
