Pycnonotus jocosus
The Red-whiskered Bulbul is about 20 centimetres (7.9 in) in length. It has brown upper-parts and whitish underparts with buff flanks and a dark spur running onto the breast at shoulder level. It has a tall pointed black crest, red face patch and thin black moustachial line. The tail is long and brown with white terminal feather tips, but the vent area is red.
urban, found mainly in tropical Asia, they are very common in hill forests and urban gardens within its range.
I spotted this around Hoan Kiem lake in Hanoi.
I'm sure it is but unfortunately I'm not that into birding. I am going back to Vietnam and SE Asia this winter though and I'm going to try to get more bird spottings.
