About These Birds

Common Nightingale

The common nightingale is celebrated as one of the finest songsters in the bird world, inspiring poets from Homer to Keats. Males sing complex phrases of over 250 different types, often at night during breeding season. Despite its famous song, the nightingale is a plain-looking bird that skulks in dense vegetation.

Black-and-orange Flycatcher

The Black-and-orange Flycatcher is a small, attractive flycatcher endemic to the shola forests and dense undergrowth of the Western Ghats in southern India. Males have striking black upperparts and bright orange-rufous underparts. It forages close to the ground in dense moss-covered montane forests for insects and berries.
