Observation details
Singing continuously. Got a glimpse of a brown bird that flew off only to hide again. Also responded to my high pitched recordings from the morning with identical calls. I was immediately able to pick this out as different from Blackbird (and as a probable Nilgiri Thrush) but we were unsure. Many discussions and 20 mins spent listening to the bird, recording it and searching for it in a tree right next to us. And we were finally quite sure after it matched well with online song recordings. Amazing experience to be right next to a singing Nilgiri Thrush!
