These are the wood-shrike, the minivet and the cuckoo-shrike. |
We hoped to see some of the rarer birds that turn up here like chestnut winged cuckoo, Ashy minivet, Black crested baza, but were not really disappointed in not seeing them. |
Few are the lurking insects that escape the bright little eye of the minivet. |
This minivet was common at the Cocoa Research Station, where it usually inhabited the shade trees in the cocoa groves. |
But the beauty of the minivet is not merely that of colouring. |
This longitudinal red or yellow wing-band characterises most species of minivet. |
