Dancing with the Robins - An Esteemed Relative

I was attracted by some melodious calls and spotted the White-rumped Shama nearby. It has the added bright orange plumage and long tail compared to the black and white counterpart of the Oriental Magpie Robin. Both are good songsters. This precious visitor lingered on and flew off. What a rare encounter!

The male bird was at the fringe of the scrub and hopped around in and out of the scrub as I made some mimic calls. A good time of sharing!
