A Brown Breasted Flycatcher foraging near a small puddle

            A really small diminutive bird just around 12-14 cms long. It is a silent bird and easy to miss and track. These birds are migrants from South East Asia and Southern china to South India during winters. But then we do see 1-2 them in the Summer and think few of them stay back. 

These flycatchers are often seen in the bush near wet areas hunting flies and other insects. They have a quick fly and catch motion and immediately come back to the same perch. These are one of the very few birds here that don't seem to mind or care about human presence. They do come close and its a delight watching them hunt for insects. 

Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.
