Tickell's leaf warbler  (Phylloscopus affinis) Saryuwetland  Ayodhya  November 25  Nikon Gears  Full screen mode recommended for details  This is a leaf warbler found in Asia in the countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan and Thailand.  The species has a yellowish underside and supercilium. Like other leaf warblers it feeds mostly on insects by gleaning and short sallies. An active bird, it prefers the canopy and low shrubbery and can be difficult to track as it moves actively from branch to branch, acrobatically exploring the underside of leaves and twigs. The clear yellowish undersides and lack of a wing bar can be used to tell it apart from similar species. #photography #photographer #instaphotography #wildlife #birding birdwatching birdwatcher travellers travelblogger blogger travelphotography birds bird naturelove lovefornature wildlifeconservation ayodhya faizabadut...

This warbler is migratory and winters mainly in India. Hume's leaf warbler is one of the smallest "Old World warblers". Like most other leaf warblers, it has greenish upperparts and off-white underparts. With its long supercilium, crown stripe and yellow-margined tertial remiges, it is very similar to the yellow-browed warbler (P. inornatus). However, it has only one prominent light wing bar, just a faint vestige of the second shorter wing bar, and overall duller colours. It also has a dark lower mandible and legs. #photography  #instaphotography #wildlife #birding #birdwatching #birdwatcher #travellers #travelblogger #blogger #travelphotography #birds #bird #naturelov...
