Yellow-eyed Babbler over the years
Enjoy the selection
The yellow-eyed Babbler, like most babblers, move around in groups. They flit around from shrub to shrub chirping most of the time. Their call is melodious compared to those of the Jungle babbler(Seven sisters as they are commonly known here). The ones living here are not too shy and can be photographed at close quarters. A beautiful eye-catching bird. Black beak, 'Eyes not the traditional beauty of India with Kajal', but has an outstanding orange-yellow eye enhanced by a small white eyebrow. The chest is white while the wings and back are chestnut brown coloured. Its tail is almost the size of its body.
The range of the yellow-eyed babbler extends from Pakistan through India, Nepal, Sri Lanka to Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Viet Nam and China.
