Eumyias thalassinus
The colour of a dilute solution of copper sulphate...the male is a tad brighter so I think this one is a female. The front is bluish-grey. Black colour around the eyes....the mascara is smudged.
Very common in Kolakham Village. The place is remote, hilly and forested. About 1868m above sea level. The bird sits still on tree tops for at least a minute or so; so photography is easy.
Lovely whistling song. This area is rich in moths and the bird never goes hungry. Called Neel (blue) Katkatiya in Bangla.
