The Pied Bush Chat is a small passerine bird found ranging from West Asia and Central Asia to the Indian subcontinent & Southeast Asia. About sixteen subspecies are recognised through its wide range with many island forms. It is a sedentary “chat” associated with open habitats in tropical and subtropical Asia. The males are black with a white vent and a white wing patch while the females are dark brown with a reddish-brown rump and underparts. Females can resemble the migratory Siberian Stonechat, but can be separated by the absence of an eyebrow and of any white on the collar or wing.

A medium-sized eagle with massive rounded wings. It appears very small-headed in flight. Their name is misleading, as there are only really two color morphs, pale and black. The pale-morph adult is dark brown above with a white breast overlaid with dark streaks. While the dark morph is dark all over with paler outer wing feathers, and can be mistaken for dark Honey-Buzzards. They inhabit forests, forest edges, and expansive parks and plantations.

Once again we venture into the grasslands surrounding Kumbhargaon, a nondescript village to the south of Bhigwan, in search of the Spotted Owlets. Surrounding the Ujni backwaters are rich grasslands and fertile farms home to an impressive list of birds, mammals and reptiles. The Spotted Owlet (Athene brama) is a small tropical asian owl breeding from mainland India to Southeast Asia and a common resident of open habitats including farmland and human habitation.
