Having sorted out (with help) the pictures, I can now reveal that other birds seen, in addition to the Oriental white eye, on the Sikkim trip included the Blue-winged minla (Minla cyanouroptera); Brahminy starling (Sturnia pagodarum); Cattle egret (Bulbus ibis); Common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus); Common mynah (Acridotheres tristis); Dusky warbler (Phylloscopus fuscatus); Green-backed tit (Parus monticolus); House crow (Corvus splendens); Oriental magpie robin (Copsychus saularis); Red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus); Red-billed leiothrix (Leiothrix lutea); Red-vented bulbul (Pcynonotus cafer); Verditer flycatcher (Eumyias thalassina); Whiskered yuhina (Yuhina flavicollis) and the White-rumped munia (Lonchura striata).
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
