    Agree with Vikram on the ID, though I don't have my book with me either . Lovely image, nice details. Any other compositions? Please post the EXIF details.

    Vikram and Abhishek,
    If you find some more information on this interesting species then please share with us.

    I guess they need to keep their tail up and have to flutter their wings. One never ceases to be amazed as to how nature has created different features in different species. I am very happy to see some unique things from Arunachal. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi
