Himalayan Bulbul (Pycnonotus leucogenys), photographed in Nagni, Himachal Pradesh.
Older editions of bird guides mention this bird as a race of the white-eared bulbul (P. leucotis). The length and forward curvature of the crest is diagnostic of these northern birds, now a separate species. The white-eared bulbul's range as a species is presently restricted to the NW part of the subcontinent.
