Hi All,

I noticed remarkable similarity between Shikra and Drongo calls.

Is it very common for two different birds to have similar calls?

Please comment.

Best regards,
Swapnil

Drongos can imitate calls of lot of birds and some of those calls resemble that of Shikra.

Thanks Saby,

That certainly clarifies my doubt.
