Indian Treepie


This is not a good photograph, but unfortunately was the only one that I could manage to capture of this Indian Treepie. Will try to get a better one in future. Though this bird is generally found in wooded country and scrub jungle, it frequents residential areas, just like this one which perched on a tree next to my house. It is the size of a cuckoo but has a longer tail. It is omnivorous like the crow and is a member of the mixed hunting associations of birds that move about in the forest.
