The Brown-winged Kingfisher is a chunky, large, orangish tree kingfisher with an oversized head and a scarlet dagger of a bill. No other large kingfisher in its range has dark brown wings. It has a bright blue-green rump patch clearly visible during flight. It is restricted to coastal habitats such as mangroves and estuaries and gives loud, fluid-sounding whistles as well as harsh grating rattles.

The Isabelline Shrike (Lanius isabellinus) is a member of the shrike family (Laniidae) found in an extensive area between the Caspian Sea and north and central China southeast to the Qaidam Basin. It is a common winter visitor to different parts of the Indian Subcontinent which is when I spotted a rare visitor to the Narsapur Forests.

A long- and stiff-tailed bird of the crow family - Corvidae - with primarily rusty-brown upperparts and dull orangish underparts. The head, mantle, and neck region are a dull, sooty black. The long graduated tail is pale gray with a wide black terminal band. Note the conspicuous silvery-gray, white, and black patterns on the wings. This treepie is found in a wide range of habitats from woodlands to scrubby patches, singly or in pairs feeding in the treetops.

The Near Threatened Mrs. Hume's pheasant, also known as Hume's pheasant or the bar-tailed pheasant, is a large, dashingly plumaged, long-tailed terrestrial forest pheasant. The male has a chestnut body, steely blue neck & wing patches, white wing bars, and a long black-and-white banded tail. The brownish female is shorter-tailed, with black-spotted upperparts and red facial patch. They are usually found singly, in pairs, or in trios in forest openings, meadows, and along rural roadsides, typically in the early morning.

The Rufous-gorgeted is a bold little flycatcher of mid- to high-altitude forests with a flashing black-and-white tail. Male is brown above with a black face, white eyebrow, and orange throat patch (gorget). The female is essentially a faded version of the male with a dark gray face and a pale, largely unnoticeable gorget. Usually perches at middle levels, sallying from its perch to catch flying insects. Often joins mixed-species feeding flocks.

A graceful & glamorous flycatcher, the adult male sports a long ribbonlike tail. The males occur in two color morphs cinnamon and white. Both color morphs sport a glossy black head with a blue ring around the eye. The white morph is entirely white below while the cinnamon morph has cinnamon upperparts & tail, and dirty white underparts. The females are cinnamon above with a grayish throat, a shorter tail, and they lack the male’s blue eyering. They make short aerial sallies after insects, usually returning to the same perch and occasionally descending to ground to pull apart insects. These are chiefly found in wooded habitats.
