Large Grey Babbler
Argya malcolmi (Sykes, WH 1832)
The large grey babbler is a member of the family Leiothrichidae found across India and far western Nepal. They are locally common in the scrub, open forest and gardenland. They are usually seen in small groups and are easily distinguished from other babblers in the region by their nasal call and the whitish outer feathers to their long tail. It is one of the largest babblers in the region. Source: Wikipedia
