700 - I wonder how many species of bird there are still awaiting your attention? Probably hundreds, possibly thousands: a lifetime's work, and a great achievement already.

Beautifully depicted, Pratim.

Photo graph of Mr. Sumit Sengupta] The white-crested laughingthrush (Garrulax leucolophus) is a member of the Leiothrichidae family. It is found in forest and scrub from the Himalayan foothills to Indochina. It formerly included the Sumatran laughingthrush as a subspecies, but unlike that species the plumage of the white-crested laughingthrush is rufescent-brown and white, and the black mask is relatively broad. 26–31 cm; 108–131 g.
