the best view we managed and every detail mentioned in the field-guide we could match in this view.
Gözlem detayları
this was the very first bird we sighted after reaching this site. A bird slightly smaller than a Common Babbler in size landed in a grass patch with tail fanned out. Rajarajan immediately confirmed it to be a Bristled Grassbird. After few minutes of foraging, the bird flew and landed on a high thorny bush & gave amazing views. Stout bill, darker ear-covert, slightly streaked upper breast forming a gorget, rufous cast on upper-parts, long tail with paler tip, striated/streaked back, and a characteristic flight with slightly cocked up & fully fanned out tail. The second bird was also sighted a few metres away. Both the bird were feeding within a 10 metre radius from where we stood and didn't venture beyond that. Once the bird lands into the grass, it slowly pushes its way in and disappears. All we could see is some grass movement for next few minutes. The bird will appear again in the same spot from where it went in and stay put for a few seconds & repeated its forage. Bristles were not prominent in the field, but were observed in the photographs taken(at-least 5 bristles i could count on both birds). One of the bird was observed picking up an Black Ant and consumed it within seconds. We were also fortunate to hear one of the bird calling, it was a monosyllabic "pheuw" repeated few times with 3-4 seconds gap. Right after the first bird started calling from atop a bush, the second one flew from the grass & perched atop another thorn bush few metres away from first one. Pictures attached for reference.
