As the name says - "Bar Winged Flycatcher Shrike" - and for last few years, I always struggled to correctly capture the bars on its wings, the exposures are always tricky due to the whites and blacks - it is a difficult bird to photograph in the forests due to its restless nature, cluttered habitat and it hardlygives any opportunity to compose it properly in the frame.
During my recent visit to India - I had some luck with this charachteristic species of Western ghats. This image is from Cotigao -Goa.
