Whitecheeked Bulbul

Most of us are familiar with the Redvented Bulbul, which is very common in Western India. However, the Whitecheeked Bulbul is not so commonly seen in the suburbs. These photographs of the bulbul are from my recent visit to the mangroves along the Thane creek. Although of the same size, it is easily distinguishable from the other races by its white cheeks and yellow vent (lower part of the body - see second picture). 
As today is Diwali, I wish you all a Happy & Prosperous Diwali.Will be back next Sunday, Nov 06.
