A picture of the Red-vented bulbul that clearly shows why it got its name. As it is a common bird with a large distribution area (I photographed it in Corbett in India last year) it is often overlooked but in the right light you can see that it has an incredibly varied plumage. The song is sometimes rendered in English literature as "be-care-ful," while the warning sound is depicted as a repetitive "peep".
