Blue-winged Minla
From New Jalpaiguri railway station we headed towards Sillory Gaon at around five o’clock in the morning and the first halt was at “Silent Valley” way to Sillory Gaon.
It was around 7.30 am. We were the first customer at a road side food stall where the mouthwatering momos were just prepared for us at these very early hours in the morning.
In our very short stop over at “Silent Valley” and “Sillory Gaon” not only explored the elusive ‘Grey-sided Laughingthrush’, but some beautiful birds like Himalayan Blue-tail, Blue-fronted Redstart, Blue-winged Minla, White-browed Piculet, Black Redstart, Fire-tailed Sunbird, Rufous-gorgated flycatcher, Rufous Sibia, Rufous-breasted Accentor, Grey-Wagtail, Rosy Pipit, Plain Mountain Finch etc.
