Description

This bird is a renowned vocalist having a beautiful, almost human, whistling call. No wonder it is often also called the "whistling schoolboy". It also has a rather harsh, high-pitched call. In the winter months we are often woken up early in the mornings before day-break by this birds sweet whistling which is a pleasure to listen to. If interested in listening to this bird, <a href="http://www.indiabirds.com/default_new.asp?Bird_SortID=664&cid=&SoundID=168&SoundFileName =malabar_whistling_thrush.mp3&SoundFileDuration =&LoopStatus =True&PauseTime =1" target="blank">click here</a>.

It has a blue-black plumage with the blue more prominent on the wings and forehead where there is a arrow-like blue marking. It is a solitary bird that has a peculiar gait. Often seen in culverts and garbage dumps looking for grubs. Eats insects, snails, frogs and crustaceans.
