Media notes
Ashwin picked up the call and stopped the car. Initially thought to be a Spotted Bushwarbler but to our surprise and thanks to AV to figure out that it was a WHBW
Observation details
Probably breeding here. Amazing views. Maybe first record for Assam and first lowland breeding record? I just didn't have West Himalayan on the radar so didn't even consider it. But I knew it didn't quite fit Spotted so checked every other Locustella and nothing fit. And the next morning I realized that I hadn't checked West Himalayan and it fit perfectly! A major range extension.
