Artamus fuscus Vieillot, 1817

The Ashy Woodswallow (Artamus fuscus) sometimes also called the Ashy Swallow-shrike is a woodswallow which is found in south Asia. Like other woodswallows, it has a short curve bill and a short square tail and long wings. It is usually seen perched in groups, high on powerlines, tall bare trees and most often in areas with a predominance of tall palm trees. Source: Wikipedia
