Only Iraq Babbler and Common Babbler are found in Iran.

I think one of these is Jungle Babbler or Large Grey Babbler

Iraq Babbler because I think the one is larger than the one you're proposing is significantly smaller crown.

I may be wrong. Do you have a closer crop?

If it is an Iraq Babbler, it'd be a new species for the PN database!
