PROPORCIONADO POR MERLIN

Bizzare black corvid which would closely resemble a drongo were it not for its jagged chainsaw of a tail. Not as conspicuous as the more well-known Gray and Rufous treepies, which can be common in urban gardens and parks. Usually sticks to densely-vegetated primary forest, as well as scrubby forest edges and secondary growth. Often seen in small family units, with pairs engaging in loud duets. Gives screechy “klee” and “klee’aw” calls, as well as rising squawks.
