CITYLIFE Summer’s around the corner and so is the call of the white-cheeked barbet: For anyone interested – the story — Very well written interesting article on barbet. I will watch out for the bird here, in Mysore. I spotted two of them on banyan tree two days back. I see them regularly on fish tailed palm, African tulip tree. I miss the sounds of Coppersmith (Megalaima haemacephala) which I used to listen to in IIT Madras. But I do like the Ko-troo … Ko-troo sound. Let me locate the picture I took sometime back . |
