Clicked this guy feeding on a left over apple in the garden.
Was constantly moving and too alert, had to click from a distance and crop image.

Nice. where was this clicked??
This is the white cheeked bubul ( Pycnonotus leucogenys) also called Himalayan bubul . It is larger, has a crest and the white patch on the cheek is smaller than the white eared bulbul (Pycnonotus leucotis).

Thanks Roopak for giving the correct identification and details.
This was clicked in Srinagar, Kashmir. These lovely birds happily feed on the ripe peaches, aprocots, apples, cherries etc found in abundance.
I wonder where must be migrating in winters.
Nice eye contact. The bite in the mouth adds to the composition. Is there a tilt? Thanks for sharing.
I agree with the previous comments. The eye contact is nice. Good to see this bird.
Cheers,

Nice image of the bulbul Mohammed. Agree the fruit in its beak adds to the composition.Also to be noticed is the typical yellow vent of the himalayan bulbul. Thanks for sharing.
