This is my first time sighting of the Eyebrowed thrush in Peninsula. Though not a lifer but it was a good sighting. According to Tee who frequent BT it is common to see here during the start of wintering season in Siberia and Himalaya side. It should be staying until the fruiting ficus is depleted by the many local birds like barbets; bulbuls and other frugivorous.... I think by end November. Even the Rhinocerous hornbill make it appearance to feed on these tiny fruits. Will put up a video later.








The shooting is about 50-60 ft up in the middle storey so do not expect sharp photos bur record shots only. 

Until Adrian start luring to it to  our usual port than we can talk & boost. The Siberian thrush was also sighted here. Similarly it was feeding high up so no good photo.


Meanwhile the Orange-headed thrush have not make an appearance which I hope it will arrive in December or January..............
