This photo is recently captured by our friend at a rural area in West Bengal, India. Red Whiskered Bulbul and the Red Vented Bulbul (search for another entry here) are very common bulbuls found in this part of India.

Bulbul: They are song birds! There are many varieties (around 130) of them. Is this a yellow vented Bulbul? We are not sure.

Red-vented Bulbul. This song bird is widely seen at our place and almost everywhere in India. Now this is sitting on a Kadam flower tree next to our apartment.
