Hi Sushmita ji,

Scimitar Babbler & striking red flowers of Erythrina. - Nice to see them together, great details & well captured.

This bird is very elusive & difficult to sight & photograph in the jungle.

Here are my record shots of this bird in the dense vegetation of Yercaud forest, Tamil Nadu.

Thanks for sharing.

Regards

Raghu

Dear Raghuji,

yes, it is a very elusive bird so kudos to you for even getting your bird in your frame. And by the way, the image I posted was taken by another birder colleague - not me. How I wish I could take such good photos!

Thanks to all once again for the ID of the flower.

yes ur right HS
but you have many varieties in E. variegata (except Erythrina
variegata L. var. alba (Blatt. & Millard) Almeida Fl. Mah. 2: 75,
1998. all other has their keels red), hence the plant in question is
E. stricta.
