Pallas' Fishing Eagle, Indian Pied Hornbill and other exciting birds!
- 5 years ago
The forests of Corbett park resound with the bird-call of Terai birds!
A Black Partridge and a female Red Junglefowl shown here looking for tiny insects in a grassland at the edge of the chaur. A Bush Chat in the grassland. A pair of Indian Pied Hornbills bellow from atop a tall tree in the open grassland, sounding like they have a bad throat.
Meanwhile, a Pallas' Fishing Eagle calls out from its perch on a tree. A Rose-breasted Parakeet fees its young ones in the hollow of a tree-trunk.
A tiny bird prepares a flight and takes off while a Grey Hornbill sits on the tallest branch of a tree. Also the video shows a Parakeet with its newborns in the hollow of tree while a Kingfisher sits quietly in the wilderness.
Partridge are birds in the pheasant family, Phasianidae. They are a non-migratory Old World group. These are medium-sized birds, intermediate between the larger pheasants and the smaller quails. Partridges are native to Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Partridges are ground-nesting seed-eaters.
The Indian Grey Hornbill (Ocyceros birostris) is a common hornbill found on the Indian subcontinent. It is mostly arboreal and is commonly sighted in pairs. They have grey feathers all over the body with a light grey or dull white belly.
The Kalij Pheasant, Lophura leucomelanos, is a pheasant found in forests and thickets, especially in the Himalayan foothills, from Nepal to western Thailand. Males are rather variable depending on the subspecies involved, but all have an at least partially glossy bluish-black plumage, while females are overall brownish.
Parakeet is a term for any one of a large number of unrelated small to medium sized species of parrot, that generally have long tail feathers. Older spellings still sometimes encountered are paroquet or parquet.
Kingfishers are a group of small to medium sized brightly coloured birds in the order Coraciiformes. They have a cosmopolitan distribution, with most species being found in the Old World and Australia.
