Text Appearing Before Image:
Corbyis heard. The crescendo shriek of the Koel is replaced by the pleasingdouble-note of the European Cuckoo (Cuculus catiot<~us). For the eternalcoo-coo-coo of the Ring (Tuttier risorius) and the little Brown Doves,the kokla kokla of the Kokla Green Pigeon (Sphenocercus sphenurus) issubstituted. The chuckles and cackles of the Spotted Owlets no longercleave the night air, but the monotonous whistle of the Collared PigmyOwlet (Glaucidiuvi brodiei). The boisterous Rose-ringed and Alexand-iineParoquets are replaced by their Slaty-headed cousins (Pa/aeomis schisticeps).The Golden-backed Woodpecker, the King Crow, the Coppersmith,the Indian Hoopoe, the Grey Partridge (Francolinuspondicerianits), and theAlolpastes Bulbuls are supplanted ill the Himalayas by the Pied Wood-peckers (Dendtocopus hitnalayensis), the Ashy Drongo (Diaurus longicauda-lus), the Great Himalayan Barbet (Megalaema marshallorum), the EuropeanHoopoe (Upupa epops), the Chukor (Caccabis chucar), and the Black Bulbuls
Text Appearing After Image:
s 289 (Hypsipetes psaroides). Some birds found in the plains have no Himalayancounterparts, but as a set-off we find many new forms on the mountains, as.for example, the various Jays, Laughing Thrushes, Tits, Warblers, the White-capped (Chimarrhomis leucocephalus) and the Plumbeous (Rhyacomis fuli-ginostis) Redstarts, the Grosbeaks, the Ouzels, Rock Thrushes, Greenfinches,Pheasants and the Woodcock (Scolopnx rusticula). But I must refrain fromfurther cataloguing. How greatly the avifauna of the Himalayas differs from that of theplains is demonstrated by a comparison of the nesting experiences ofColonel Rattray, in the Murree hills, and myself, at Lahore, which may betaken as typical of the plains of the Punjab. In the course of two yearsobservation Colonel Rattray fouud nests of 104 species of birds. I did notkeep a record of the two years I spent at Lahore, but I think I may safelysay that I saw the nests of over 60 species of birds, and of these only sevenare included in Colonel Rat
