Observation details
A small flycatcher with obvious crest. Throat, chest and most of the belly rufous. Darker on chest and throat, back of the neck and the crest (which seemed to have a few brown feathers too) . Wings brown with faint buff wing bars, tail also brownish. During the time I watched it the bird was engaged in frenetical nest building activity (see video). I never saw more than one bird at a time. I never heard it calling possibly due to my hearing impairment which makes it difficult to pick up faint sounds when there is other, albeit low volume, noise around, in this case short conversations among the observers.
