THE WHISPER OF WINGS

Oriental white-eye
(Zosterops palpebrosus)

Introduction: A complete package of restlessness is what this small passerine is all about. They are one of the most commonly seen birds when we visit any hills, gardens and groves. They come in greenish olive with white and bright yellow throat, breast and lower parts. Some individual have buff flanks as well. There wings are more rounded and have strong legs to do all kinds of acrobatic maneuvers in trees, bushes and scrub. »»

SANGLA VALLEY

The road to Baspa - not for the faint of heart!
