24th November - DTRI

Tuesday I knocked off early and dropped by the fig tree to see what was about. Not much, a small party of Bar-bellied Cuckoo-Shrike, with two White-winged Trillers was the best.

On Wednesday I met up with some visiting birders and did the DTRI track, looking for Buttonquails etc. While I was waiting for them I had cracking views of a Tawny Grassbird in the open. It was calling, and doing a sort of wing-shaking display. Magic!

The chestnut cap and breast free from streaks are very clear in this extremely obliging Tawny Grassbird
